The funnel is the answer to this. We're not running four agents on every PR — 65% are filtered before review even begins, and 95% of flagged PRs never reach the courtroom. This is because we do think there's some value in a single agent's judgment, and the prosecutor gets to make a choice when to file charges vs not.

Only ~1-2% of PRs trigger the full adversarial pipeline. The courtroom is the expensive last mile, deliberately reserved for ambiguous cases where the cost of being wrong far exceeds the cost of a few extra inference calls. Plus you can make token/model-based optimizations for the extra calls in the argumentation system.
