Questions the archive repeatedly exposes but does not yet resolve. Gaps are research agenda items, not claims that no answer exists elsewhere.
Many governance approaches can classify risk, evaluate behaviour or state duties without specifying the authority, thresholds, intervention path and residual-risk owner that turn evidence into a binding operational consequence.
Without this control chain, governance can remain advisory even when the underlying system acts at machine speed.
Agent governance proposals increasingly define duties and delegated authority, but operational revocation, evidence preservation, correction and redress remain less specified than initial authorization.
A governance system that can grant authority but cannot reliably withdraw or contest it creates persistent decision rights without a complete lifecycle.
More granular measurement can reveal distributional differences but does not supply a legitimate rule for selecting populations, demographic categories, aggregation weights or intervention thresholds.
Treating an empirical alignment target as self-justifying embeds political choices inside measurement and tuning infrastructure.
