4. Post-Mortem Notes
- KNOWN ISSUE:
executive.power.modulecontinues to exhibit unpredictable behavior whenjudicial.reviewflags are set totrue. - REGRESSION: Public confidence metric,
citizenship.trust.index, showed significant dips correlating with prolonged legal disputes. - WORKAROUND: State governors successfully utilized
judicial.review.initiate()function to forcefederal.deployment.rollback(). - FIXED (partial): ~500
NationalGuard.entityinstances returned to originalstate.resource.pool. - PENDING:
DOJ.legalchallenge.oregonticket remains open, indicating potential for future resurfacing of this bug. - TODO: Implement stricter
sanity_checks()forexecutive.rhetoric.outputregarding 'Insurrection Act' references.
