The Case File is forty-plus pages and growing. Most readers will not — and should not — read it linearly. Three reading paths below match the three readerships we most often hear from. Pick one; treat it as a spine; branch when something calls.

Every path converges at the same two pages: Falsifiability — what would withdraw the case — and the citation registry — every source, append-only, with backlinks to every page that uses it. Velicham can retrieve the archive prose, but load-bearing answers still resolve through registered citation glosses: that is the discipline that lets this organ be peer-reviewable.
