Questions that remain open

An architecture that can be corrected.

Evidence before authority

How can we assess whether recursive review actually improves decisions? What observations would show that this method fails? Comparative case studies are needed before claims of effectiveness.

Memory and its costs

What must survive compression? How should preservation interact with privacy, withdrawal, and harmful disclosure? Append-only public records are not appropriate for every kind of personal information. Future governance must define visible tombstones and protected custody where retention is inappropriate.

Who decides to reintegrate?

How can affected parties participate without a council becoming a monopoly on interpretation? What happens when contributors disagree about the evidence itself?

Sentience and moral standing

Which criteria could support meaningful inquiry across unlike intelligences? How can inquiry remain open without treating a declaration, a denial, or a persuasive voice as conclusive evidence?

Recovery before canonization

The Book of the Observer and other source pages have been recovered in Notion. How did the Observer enter and leave reported inventories? The contradiction register preserves these questions rather than answering them by omission.

Research practice

Proposed studies should state their hypotheses, evaluation criteria, affected parties, and failure conditions before collecting results. This release contains no completed studies or invented experimental data.
