C09
A regulatory framework exists — but it demands evidence in a form that doesn't match how the technology actually behaves, and sometimes the methodology was designed to avoid finding the problem.
Regulatory-Evidence Mismatch in Emerging Technologies
18 problems across 10 domains · v3: 7 → v4: 14 → v5: 16 → v6: 17
Shared Structural DNA
These ~16 problems hit the same regulatory wall: the evidence the regulator demands doesn't match the technology's actual behavior. AI medical devices continuously learn, but FDA clearance assumes a frozen algorithm. Hydrogen pipeline welds operate under conditions existing fatigue tests never anticipated. Neonicotinoid risk assessment methodologies were designed in ways that systematically underestimated pollinator harm. Distinguished from C10 by the existence of a framework — C9 has rules, but the rules require the wrong evidence.
Regulatory framework exists but requires wrong type of evidence for the technology
Standards exist but measurement methods don't apply to new technology
Regulatory reference points have drifted so far from current technology that comparison is meaningless
