Why Behind the Thinking #
Cost pressure is universal. Every operator faces it. The diagnostic value of [Rising Costs Argument] is that it converts a universal condition into a fork — two roads, two responses, two compounding trajectories. The operator who reads cost pressure as a reason to subtract is on a different five-year path than the operator who reads it as a reason to sharpen. The mechanism names the fork so the operator cannot pretend the choice doesn’t exist.
