This reads more like a semantic fidelity problem at the infrastructure layer. We’ve normalized drift because embeddings feel fuzzy, but the moment they’re persisted and reused, they become part of system state, and silent divergence across hardware breaks auditability and coordination. Locking down determinism where we still can feels like a prerequisite for anything beyond toy agents, especially once decisions need to be replayed, verified, or agreed upon.
