Mechanisms¶
- Independent-Axis Brainstorming Rounds
- … produces eight framings in twelve minutes — chronological, thematic-by-ecosystem, a single-specimen first-person account, a mystery-to-be-solved, a controversy-driven debate, and more — with judgment suspended so no one kills the controversy idea for being "too risky" mid-round, per Osborn's classic ground-rules.
This sourceRequires brainstorming to defer judgment during idea production under explicit ground rules.

- Two-Pass Generation and Evaluation

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 3 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.
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.
