the ntsb model has been quite effective at creating safety through analysis of failures in the extremely transparent and public eye.

i dont see a reason to think private regulation will do anything but give people explosive diarrhea or drop the doors off of planes.

weve already seen how bad it is when companies regulate themselves without public oversight. catastrophic implosions of deep sea submarines and agents hacking systems to hide cheating come to mind

the argument should be flipped on its head that by some magic keeping these tests and training protocols private is safer than making them extremely public. The experiment in private regulation has been a drastic failure across the board, and we shouldnt have tried it without consensus
