Open questions
Check this proposed common ground with the people in the discussion.
The supplied analyses report apparent agreements. None is recorded here as accepted; compare the original posts before inviting participants to review the wording.
Define realised progress, including survival and retention of the mission.
The first analysis proposes adoption retained in practice, with viability and faithfulness measured separately. Agree a bounded system, period and observable outcome rather than equating publications, satisfaction or market growth with success.
Review the wider programme before choosing further branches.
The full programme is now mapped: reflective development, the Laboratory, Forge/model adaptation, Vocal Presence, federation, material and energy services, and enforceable security. Its spiritual root is a philosophical hypothesis. No single global constraint is established, and no branch is the whole programme.
