Primes¶
- Data Structure
- Second, the choice has consequences far beyond efficiency: a taxonomy, a filing system, an org chart, an archive, an interface contract, a legal code, and a user interface are data structures in human practice, each privileging certain navigations and lookups and making others structurally painful, so that bureaucratic friction, scientific blind spots, and design failures are often the predictable cost of a chosen arrangement rather than incidental flaws.
This sourceArgues that abstractions such as data structures are general intellectual tools whose framing carries from computing into other domains.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
