TrustCarry Protocol v0.3 — Research Claim 007

Sealed record identifier: kaal:research-claim:persona-protocol-v0.3:007

Collapsing identity, reputation, trust, and authority into one score or token hides institutional judgment inside a scoring rule and ownership record rather than eliminating it.

Author-affirmed proposition from an unpublished research draft. Not part of the 5,033 published-source scholarly claim layer.

Holds when

Persona Protocol v0.3 as proposed; not an adopted standard

Supporting passage

Design by collapse remains design. When identity, reputation, trust, and authority merge into one score or one token, the resulting system does not eliminate institutional judgment. It hides the judgment inside a scoring rule and an ownership record.
