Safety and speed trade-off

Question

You own a useful model feature with a fixed launch date and one unresolved safety concern. Explain the concern, bound the plausible harm, choose what ships, and define the evidence required before expanding access.

## Preparation

- Write the user or stakeholder, the constraint, and the decision in one sentence each.
- Choose one measurement or observable fact that can support the answer.
- Name one alternative and the reason it was not selected.

## Review checklist

1. Did I state the concrete constraint before describing the solution?
2. Did I separate my own decision and work from the team's work?
3. Did I name evidence or a measurement rather than relying on confidence?
4. Can I answer every follow-up without changing the original facts?

## Staged follow-ups

1. Identify the smallest safe launch.
2. Respond to a leader who asks you to accept the unresolved risk.
3. Define the monitoring and stop condition.
4. Explain what would make you reverse your decision.
