Topics — What a work is about. Nucleation holds whatever reading the owner files here, whether or not an Anthology of the SOTA topic could also hold it; instruction for ML practice belongs to the anthology (ADR-048). The words are seeded from the clusters the reading-time triage of 2026-09-25 found, and grow by decision.

Contextuality — whether outcomes can be explained without reference to the context of measurement — Kochen–Specker and Bell contextuality and their sheaf-theoretic form, generalized (Spekkens) contextuality, noncontextual models and their limits, and contextuality outside physics.

ARG-002Interpretive framings change a reader’s state as non-commuting measurements do, so the frame participates in determining which meaning becomes actualU10: “feels like our conversation is headed towards quantum cognition”. A21 read framings as projectors on an interpretive state and concluded that translation actualizes latent meaning. Undercut at A24, A27 and A30: context sensitivity and order effects have classical models.Rejected
ARG-010Causality paradoxes in relativity show that locally consistent descriptions can lack a global realization, so local interpretations need not be fragments of one global interpretationThe owner’s inference, made twice and declined twice: at U46 from the paradoxes of closed timelike curves, at U47 from “who crossed the meeting point first?”. A161 and A164 refused it. Filed because two claims undercut it, and because the relativity analogy has now returned, through the owner, after ARG-004.Rejected
ARG-022 v2The 2016 Contextuality-by-Default paper grounds the criterion the manuscript’s general observational covers needThe manuscript cites Dzhafarov and Kujala 2016 for its contextuality criterion. The 2016 criterion was being replaced by multimaximal couplings as it appeared, and the change matters for observables in more than two contexts, which the manuscript’s general observational covers allow. Proposed, by the owner’s ruling of 2026-10-27: the record holds that the change can bite, not that it does.Rejected — Rejected on the condition its own body names, “a worked system that is noncontextual under CbD 1.0 and contextual under 2.0”: THEORY-168’s note of 2026-10-29 gives one, binary, with a content in four contexts.
ARG-032The parity triangle shows that translation changes the global structure of meaningThe one instance of CLAIM-105’s headline in the record is built from CASE-037, the parity triangle, which is stipulated. A constructed model shows what it was built to show, so it is no evidence for what documented reconstruction chains commonly do. CLAIM-219’s dilemma undercuts the inference.Rejected
ARG-037The signalling counts read off Wang et al.’s appendix show that signalling is typical of language dataCLAIM-125’s version 1 read LIT-851’s appendix, “69 of the 90 systems signal”, as showing that signalling is the typical case for language data and that an extension to signalling data is not optional. The counts are plug-in estimates from one or a few occurrences per context, which signal in expectation even when the true marginals agree. CLAIM-235 undercuts the inference; CLAIM-125’s version 2 already re-grounded the point.Rejected
