Context, not validation
The archive preserves historical claims, language, and influences as context. Preservation does not independently validate those claims.
Why keep the record
A public record helps readers distinguish present commitments from earlier ideas, experiments, proposals, and civic arguments.
Current protocol wins on this site
Where older material conflicts with current protocol accuracy, the current public pages control: committee initial approval, 45-day expiry, and unfinished peer-renewal parameters.
Protocol status: committee approval starts the lifecycle; every attestation expires after 45 days; random peer renewal details are still being designed.
