Legitimacy grounded in descriptive honesty rather than moral consensus—naming enforcement asymmetries, acknowledging bounded commitments, and scoping obligations to what can actually be upheld. Paradoxically, institutions that admit limitation often regain trust faster than those that insist on totality.
A regulator stating 'We can monitor these 50 institutions effectively; beyond that our enforcement becomes performative' demonstrates truth-aligned legitimacy—building credibility through honest scoping.
