Fairness Self-Check
Fairness is not about everything being equal. It is about whether the system makes sense, whether people are treated with respect, and whether effort connects to outcome in a way that feels clear and justifiable. Some fairness problems are structural. Some are self-created, built from rules you made up and never told anyone about. And some are both, which is the hardest kind.
“That's not fairness. That's a mismatch.”
