Primes

• Native-Category Flattening
  • Mexican folk names for chiles already encode processing state — jalapeño and cuaresmeño among the fresh names, chipotle, mora, and morita among the dried — so a research team coding how cooks classify chiles directly into a fixed external codebook would collapse just those distinctions into the nearest external category, and the downstream menu-planning analysis would discover it cannot answer the very questions that would have driven strategy, until a second pass that transcribes the interviews in participants' own terms first recovers a native partition, mappable to the codebook but re-expandable when needed.
