Review stability
Current estimate
Needs more build before stable review

The current pair still lacks enough verified evidence depth. Governance and year memory exist in places, but the review would still lean too heavily on inferred data.

Progress to stable review
5/8 signals complete

3 stability signals still missing across the pair.
