Primes¶
- Reification
- Goodhart is a downstream consequence, not the move itself. Not essentialism (see Essentialism). Essentialism treats a category as having a fixed inner nature; reification is the broader move of treating any abstraction (score, dashboard, map) as the substrate.
This sourceCritiques the reification of statistical constructs as fixed properties rather than purpose-built measurements, supporting essentialism-about-constructed-categories as a species of reification.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
