Primes¶
- Evidence-Fidelity Decay
- A field investigator interviewing a control-room operator six weeks after a near-miss, who transcribes a coherent account that silently fuses alarms the operator heard, alarms inferred from the circulated incident report, and alarms reconstructed for narrative sense, faces exactly the problem an oral historian faces with a decades-old recollection and an ML team faces with end-of-session labels.
This sourceShows that accident reconstruction works backward from the outcome, fusing what was actually perceived with hindsight-driven inference — directional reconstruction in delayed safety investigation.

- This is the "second story" discipline — insisting that the account go beyond the convenient surface explanation to the conditions that actually produced the outcome.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a 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.
