The Demo Fails on Camera
At a retailer demonstration, the altered chair locked on a curb ramp. Priya reached the user first and used Naomi's mechanical release.
Cameras captured the failure and Priya's competence.
Northstar blamed improper handling. Naomi used the calibration certificate to show the load settings had been changed before launch.
The metrology lab then withdrew its report under legal pressure.
Simone sent Naomi the evidence-bag audit. Someone had opened the sealed key overnight.
