163 -
164 -* (((
165 -**Identity vs. version pattern**
166 -Using base entities plus version entities (CLAIM + CLAIM_VERSION, SCENARIO + SCENARIO_VERSION, etc.) is exactly how modern knowledge systems handle:
167 -
168 -* auditability
169 -* time evolution
170 -* re-evaluation triggers
171 -* federation and partial replication
172 -)))
173 -* (((
174 -**Scenario-centric reasoning**
175 -Separating //Claim// (what people argue about) from //Scenario// (interpretive frame) is very aligned with “truth landscape” style systems:
176 -
177 -* Scenarios explain //why people disagree//.
178 -* Verdicts are tied to specific scenario versions → avoids mixing incompatible assumptions.
179 -)))
180 -* **Evidence and verdicts as first-class entities**
181 -Evidence is explicit, linked to scenarios, and verdicts are per scenario. This matches good practice from fact-checking, scientific assessment panels, and trust graphs.
182 -* (((
183 -**Cluster level (CLAIM_CLUSTER)**
184 -Grouping related claims avoids duplication and lets you:
185 -
186 -* reuse scenarios across paraphrases
187 -* share embeddings / semantic search
188 -* keep the system scalable as the corpus grows.
189 -)))
190 -* (((
191 -**Explicit review layer (REVIEW_ACTION, roles, etc.)**

194 -* governance
195 -* permissions
196 -* audit trails
197 -* future trust scoring per user / role.
