Domain-specific

• Audience Reveal

Mechanisms

• Dual Timeline Board
  • It is the natural home for cross-cutting

    This sourceDefines cross-cutting as interleaving two distinct lines of action or timelines to create an intended narrative effect.

• Fabula–Syuzhet Matrix
  • It is the natural artifact wherever a nonlinear structure must stay honest to an underlying sequence — the working embodiment of the fabula/syuzhet distinction itself.

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.
