Primes about the shape of preferences and demand: marginal utility and indifference curves, loss and risk aversion, anchoring, price elasticity, deadweight loss, gradients.

8 primes in this family — primes that sit near one another in abstraction space (k-means over structural-signature embeddings). Each is shown with its structural–framed character and how distinctive (sparsely-neighbored) it is.
