Tissues use feedback circuits in which cells send signals to each other to control their growth and survival. We show that such feedback circuits are inherently unstable to mutants that misread the signal level: Mutants have a growth advantage to take over the tissue, and cannot be eliminated by known cell‐intrinsic mechanisms. To resolve this, we...
