Primary Datum
Pressure is not disproof. This unweighted methodology row explains that evidence can lean without ending the debate: it may be less expected, more costly, or harder to integrate under a worldview without making that worldview impossible. The public pressures were AI-determined under a strict human-governed ruleset, as a way of letting opposing arguments press the case rather than modeling the owner's private convictions. Disproof is reserved for contradiction, impossibility, self-undermining logic, or structural collapse.

Caveats / Notes
- Source note
- Unweighted methodology row explaining the difference between ordinary evidential pressure and disproof. It should not alter scoring math.
- Scoring note
- No active BF. Support-layer explanation only.
