You are looking at what this model believed on 2026-09-13, not at what it believes now. Belief had not been computed for this Question yet — so there are no shares to show, and that blank is the honest reading, not a missing page. The gap between when things happened and when we learned them is the fog of war — the two clocks.
The split — every branch
Under Structural there are no percentages at all: these are counts of how well tested each branch is, which is a different claim from how likely it is. Untested is not the same as refuted.
The branches, one by one
Prior sole‑source justifications and limited external audit requirements leave oversight gaps around purpose limitation and domestic use.
