The passage around this formula

There is an embarrassing possibility even after the measure wins. The design could discover that experts disagree about completion classes because the project’s norms are genuinely contestable, not because the task contains a measurable quantity. That would be a finding about the limits of operationalizing intention, not a license to harden the rubric until it produces an effect. Another embarrassing possibility is that G predicts humans but not agents. Then the phrase “AI feeds on the distance” was too strong: the distance may be a human coordination problem that current systems do not navigate in a coherent way.
