2 of 4 review checks done · 2 counted

4 independent evidence lineages · review checks 2 of 4 · stability HIGH

Main unresolved issue: 7 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:cbaa0666-0806-8b44-b4d6-c42bf792fd70

Not yet independently audited.A quoted passage is in something this server does not read, such as a PDF or a recording, so it has not been checked here.

Why?

Strongest counted support: An official StarTrek.com recap states the relevant Eugenics-era timeline events were supposed to happen in 1992. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The excerpt says the Eugenics Wars were supposed to occur in the 1990s.; A speaker says the Eugenics Wars were supposed to happen in the 1990s and did not.

Review gaps: independence reviewed, primary source reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Supported.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

prior 0.50 → log-odds 0.000000 + 4.707000 (the counted weights) = 4.707000 → probability 0.9910

Under neighbouring settings of the same model: 0.9643 to 0.9978, a spread of 0.0335. The result sits on a rounding boundary.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

The passage places the Eugenics Wars in the 1990s, and the term is Star Trek's own, but it names no episode, film or chronology, which a claim typed TEXTUAL would need in order to be checked against the fiction.

True of the original TOS chronology established in "Space Seed", but the word "originally" is load-bearing: later productions shifted the Eugenics Wars into the 21st century, with an explicit in-universe retcon in Strange New Worlds. So "Star Trek's fictional chronology" is not singular on this point.

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
