Monitoring / Alert Noise
Kind: tension
Record: tension:alert-noise-monitoring
Canonical: Schema
"monitoring" (observability layer) is traded against "Alert Noise" (observability layer) — a principle cannot be scope-separated from a quality, metric, or cost it competes with; resolve by measuring "Alert Noise" and choosing an explicit operating point.
