**2026**

- [6192998-011](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6192998-011) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- The 2018 system produces only binary accept or reject outcomes, so it has no way to express intermediate assessments such as good but not great, or excellent innovation with poor execution.
  > Problem 1: Binary validation only. The system produces only binary outcomes (accept/reject). No mechanism exists to say "good but not great" or "excellent innovation, poor execution."

- [7596939-013](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/7596939-013) [design/stated] -- The Article resolves agent identity by legal stipulation rather than metaphysics: the legal subject is the registered record, continued by a recorded learning update within a prescribed granularity or by a recorded continuity transition, and only while the signing key stays within the registered configuration.
  > Should intelligent agents have legal rights? This Article sets that question aside and asks a smaller one that matters more in practice. An intelligent agent that earns a reputation record has something to lose.
