+extraction_notes: "Two novel formal results extracted as claims: (1) exponential barrier + calibration oracle solution, (2) MAPS framework for managing alignment gap. Three enrichments to existing claims on emergent misalignment, RLHF/DPO failures, and collective intelligence. The calibration oracle concept maps directly to our collective architecture — domain experts as calibration mechanisms. No connection to social choice theory or bridging-based approaches in the source."

 WHY ARCHIVED: The "calibration oracle" concept maps to our collective architecture — domain experts as calibration mechanisms
 EXTRACTION HINT: The exponential barrier + calibration oracle constructive result is the key extractable claim pair

+## Key Facts
+- Exponential sample complexity: exp(n*alpha*epsilon^2) where alpha = fraction of problematic contexts, epsilon = bias strength
+- Calibration oracle reduces complexity to O(1/(alpha*epsilon^2))
