> The second you try to measure it, the wave function collapses, and you've fundamentally altered the thing you were trying to measure.

Related to Goodhart's law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure".

I'm wondering if this is only true if the act of measurement is transparent (so that the people being measured can game them). If the act is opaque enough such that the form of the metric cannot easily be guessed SEO-style, then maybe wave function collapse can still be avoided?
