Why Nothing Had Surfaced

The draft had already cleared the outside review. Then the people inside went through it and found more.

So I went back and asked the auditor why none of it had surfaced. The answer was blunter than I expected. The review had been weighted toward whether the structure held up and whether any rule was being broken, and the part about how the thing would actually run once it was in place, day after day, had been missing entirely.

Since then it does not judge on the structure alone. It walks through the working day as well — who ends up waiting on whom, what slips past the quality checks already in place.
