Perspective

Evidence, not opinion: how we think about neutrality

thread will never tell you who was right. Here is why that constraint makes the product more useful, not less.

It would be technically straightforward to have thread render a verdict. We have chosen not to, and we do not intend to change our minds.

A system that judges people becomes a system people manage rather than use. Conversations get performed for the record. Trust erodes exactly where it is most needed.

A system that preserves evidence does the opposite. It gives both sides the same starting point and leaves the judgement where it belongs: with people who understand the context.

Neutrality is not a limitation we tolerate. It is the feature that makes everything else safe to adopt.
