Whether human-approval checkpoints become automated and statistical is, likewise, mostly a readout of Axis B rather than a genuinely separate question. A useful way to see the dependency is to write the automation decision as a threshold rule. Let p(a) be a certified upper bound on the probability that action a violates its specification, and let S(a) be a severity score for the consequence class a belongs to. A natural rule an organization or regulator could adopt is
