# The Schema

0. The Schema
0.1 Node Facets
0.2 Edge Types
0.3 Tier Definitions
0.4 Convergence Score Formula
Convergence_Strength(Node) = Σ_i [claim_tier_weight(T_i) × domain_independence(D_i) × citation_depth(S_i)]

Where:
  claim_tier_weight: T0=4, T1=3, T2=2, T3=1, T4=0.5, T5=0
  domain_independence: 1.0 if domains derived pattern independently; 0.5 if partial borrowing; 0.2 if one imported from another
  citation_depth: 1.0 if named source + year + result; 0.5 if named source only; 0.1 if vague attribution

A node is LOAD-BEARING if Convergence_Strength ≥ 6.0 and claim_tier ≤ T2.
A node is CARRIED (visible, low-ranked) if claim_tier ≥ T3 or Convergence_Strength < 6.0.
