- Rock-Paper-Scissors (Intransitive Cyclic Dominance)
- And in markets and technology, large economic systems are argued to behave intransitively, so three competing standards or business models could form a triangle in which each is vulnerable to the next — generalist beats specialist beats super-specialist beats generalist — with no stable winner, though that triangle is an illustration here rather than a documented market case.

Klimenko supports the general statement that large economic systems tend to behave intransitively, with cycles and collapses; the specific standards triangle is correctly labelled an illustration.
“large economic systems tend to behave in a typically intransitive manner (e.g., with cycles and collapses)”
- And in markets and technology, large economic systems are argued to behave intransitively, so three competing standards or business models could form a triangle in which each is vulnerable to the next — generalist beats specialist beats super-specialist beats generalist — with no stable winner, though that triangle is an illustration here rather than a documented market case.
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? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
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.
