Human in the Loop is useful, but it is often too shallow if it only means “a person clicks approve.” LERA asks a deeper architectural question: is judgment structurally required before execution, and is responsibility clearly anchored? A human reviewer can still approve the wrong action.
A human can be rushed, misinformed, poorly authorized, or used as a symbolic rubber stamp. That is why LERA is not merely “put a human in the loop.” Human in the Loop adds a person.
LERA adds a Judgment–Governance Architecture for governing execution.
A human approval click is not the same as judgment-governance.
