Abstract
Children’s play is increasingly controlled, costly and standardised. Risk aversion has resulted in attempts to eliminate all danger despite the limited health burden of play-related injuries and missing cost–benefit evidence. The current role and implementation of playground safety standards is a key inhibitor of stimulating play provision. Playground safety standards assume that play is about engineered structures. Standard creating bodies and playground inspectors tend to be missing key voices and knowledge. The proper domain of playground standards is engineering-related issues, such as structural integrity. However, they make judgments about children’s play behaviours, which are shaped by the children using the space and local circumstances: they are not standardised and should lay outside the scope of standards. We recommend that the value-based judgments currently included in standards and inspections should rest with play providers using Risk Benefit Assessment frameworks. We provide recommendations for play providers, standard setters, inspectors and public health.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
