Reviews

Hostile reads of the lanes

Section titled “Hostile reads of the lanes”

Adversarial reviews, written to attack a lane rather than describe it. They are the reason several arms were cut, several gates rewritten, and one fused kernel shipped unverified for a week before the review caught it.

Read them as claims, not as descriptions: a review is a snapshot of a lane’s state at the moment someone went looking for what was wrong with it, and some findings were later dissolved by a better measurement (the A/B seed wave is the example — three of its measurements corrected the lanes it reviewed).
