Alignment is something you want, so if you're not confident that it's possible, that sure sounds like a problem

Sorry, I spoke inexactly. I read alignment as being the problem of non-alignment.

I'm still not seeing evidence that any "alignment" issues we've actually seen are distinct in class from common bugs. Like, yes, if I accidentally rm* the computer has mis-aligned with my intentions. But that strikes me as a bullshit neologism.
