    {"id":"C-LIGHT","class":"measured-and-defined","name":"Speed of light in vacuum","statement":"The SI fixes c at exactly 299792458 metres per second.","boundary":"The exact value defines the metre; it does not make every speed in matter equal to c.","sources":["BIPM-SI","NIST-CODATA"]},
    {"id":"L-ENERGY","class":"physical-law","name":"Energy conservation / first law","statement":"For a declared thermodynamic system, changes in internal energy are accounted for by heat and work.","boundary":"The system boundary and sign convention must be stated.","sources":["NASA-THERMO"]},
    {"id":"L-ENTROPY","class":"physical-law","name":"Entropy direction / second law","statement":"For an isolated system, total entropy does not decrease.","boundary":"Entropy is a physical quantity, not a synonym for moral decline or historical destiny.","sources":["NASA-THERMO"]},
    {"id":"L-MOMENTUM","class":"physical-law","name":"Momentum conservation","statement":"Total momentum remains constant when no net external force acts on an isolated system.","boundary":"The system and external forces must be identified.","sources":["NASA-MOMENTUM"]},
    {"id":"M-IDENTITY","class":"formal-truth","name":"Identity within a formal system","statement":"Within ordinary formal systems, an object is identical to itself and equals may be substituted for equals under stated rules.","boundary":"Mathematical truth depends on definitions, axioms and inference rules; it is not empirical evidence about a person or event.","sources":[]},
    {"id":"B-VARIATION","class":"biological-constraint","name":"Inheritance includes variation","statement":"Inheritance carries information while mutation and recombination create variation.","boundary":"Genes, environment and development interact; simple Mendelian patterns are only one subset.","sources":["NHGRI-VARIATION"]},
    {"id":"H-ART","class":"human-capacity","name":"Art transforms experience into form","statement":"Humans repeatedly create image, movement, sound, object and performance to communicate and explore experience.","boundary":"This is a recurring capacity, not an immutable physical law; meaning changes across people and cultures.","sources":[]},
    {"id":"H-STORY","class":"human-capacity","name":"Stories connect events through symbols and sequence","statement":"Literature and oral storytelling preserve, test and transform meaning.","boundary":"No single narrative is automatically complete or true, and story cannot replace evidence in factual adjudication.","sources":[]},
    {"id":"H-LOVE","class":"project-covenant","name":"Love as care expressed through action","statement":"This project treats love as active care that protects dignity, agency, belonging, truth and repair.","boundary":"This is a chosen ethical covenant, not a discovered equation, compulsory emotion or claim that love alone resolves danger or injustice.","sources":[]}
