- [6607458-033](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6607458-033) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Without a verification record accessible to counterparties, generative markets suffer a generative-quality failure analogous to the lemons problem: counterparties price on the distribution of observed qualities, which systematically underprices high-quality generators.
  > The computative analog is a generative-quality failure: when the quality of a generative distribution is unobservable, counterparties price on the distribution of observed qualities, which systematically underprices high-quality generators.

- [6607458-034](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6607458-034) [design/argued] -- Reputation infrastructure adequate to computative exchange requires four elements: verification against stated objectives, a tamper-resistant accessible record, a mapping from verifications to a predictive reputation score, and a non-transferability constraint, which distributed-ledger systems satisfy by construction.
  > The infrastructure requirements are four: a verification mechanism against stated objectives; a tamper-resistant accessible record of verifications; a mapping from verifications to a reputation score predictive of future performance; and a non-transferability constraint.
