Part VI / Improve
Learn without self-authorizing change
Improve converts validated production outcomes and failure evidence into proposals, experiments, and governed new versions.
Question this part answers
How does the factory get better safely?

Separate likely directions and open questions from current requirements.
Retain this
- Learning can be autonomous; promotion should be governed.
- Every meaningful failure should make the system harder to fail the same way twice.
- Never jump straight to training.
