TRACE / 2025-08-30
A mixer is not a dead end. It is another confidence level
An observed hop and a probabilistic cluster cannot be written as one line to a venue.
AURELINE TRACE separates observed, inferred and hypothesis. A venue is entitled to reject a file that mixes them.
After a mixer a custodial point often remains. It has to be evidenced separately, not ‘because it looks similar’.
An honest file is weaker on emotion and stronger on source. That is the file compliance channels accept.
