What endures

Memory

Words and their context

Preserve the words—and the questions around them.

A record can outlive the reasons for making it. Sources and context keep a lasting sentence intelligible.

Permanence carries responsibility. Corrections belong beside earlier statements; a missing account deserves a visible gap.

Principle

Preserve what a record can and cannot tell.

Words endure. Control over their reading may not.

Memory

01Why keep the gaps?

Memory

A marked absence lets the reader distinguish surviving evidence from inference.

02Can a later offering correct an earlier one?

Memory

It can respond. The earlier onchain record remains; explain what changed and why.

03Does permanence ensure understanding?

Memory

Words need context, interpretation, and care for the people they concern.
