Core laws

• Native meaning is never destroyed.
• Claims are not silently promoted into facts.
• Context and time are first-class.
• Identity is scoped and revisable.
• Absence distinguishes unknown, not provided, not applicable, redacted, unresolved, and confirmed absent.
• Contradiction is preserved.
• Mappings are versioned claims with provenance.
• Released versions are immutable.
• Anyone may extend; canon admission remains governed.
• Operational reasoning is bounded.
