Primes¶
- Lock-In
- Each role is filled by a domain-specific thing (a developmental valley vs. an installed keyboard base), but the relations among the roles are identical, a transfer pattern Page (2006) treats as a defining feature of path-dependent and lock-in phenomena across social, biological, and technological domains.
This sourceFormal treatment of path dependence and lock-in across social, biological, and technological substrates; argues that the same structural mechanisms produce the asymmetry regardless of domain, supporting the substrate-independence claim for the prime.

- Path Dependence
- As Page (2006) formalizes, a system exhibits path dependence when the current feasible set of outcomes depends on which historical path the system has followed, even when the exogenous conditions are now identical.

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? 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.
