Primes

• Counterfactual Proximity Weighting
  • Safety engineering: leading-indicator weighting of near-misses (the Heinrich pyramid, state-safety programmes) enters near-catastrophes into the risk register at a fraction of the catastrophe's cost, proportional to their proximity in the causal chain.

    This sourceIntroduces the accident-pyramid relating many minor incidents and near-misses to each major injury, the basis of leading-indicator near-miss safety weighting.

• Vantage-Induced Omission
  • Organisational risk management sees only incidents that enter the reporting system, leaving near-misses in non-reporting subcultures invisible.
