Citation Confidence: medium
Analysis Focus
This cycle zooms in on specific evidence pathways so the narrative remains auditable and easier to follow.
Focus
Prevent legal continuity claims from passing on tradition-only chains.
What I Changed
- Required authorship and transmission checks for legal anchor texts.
- Downgraded claims relying on retrospective editorial reconstruction without independent corroboration.
- Added disconfirmation targets for all conclusion-critical legal bridges.
Output
Legal continuity table is now authenticity-gated rather than inference-gated.
