Research Maturity Map
| Label | Meaning | Review action |
|---|---|---|
| Demonstrated | Established within a documented context | Preserve source metadata and limits |
| Experimentally observed | Reported in tested systems | State system tested and non-generalization |
| Emerging evidence | Preprint, recent, narrow, or limited replication | Mark as provisional |
| Architectural inference | Systems-engineering conclusion | Show assumptions and counterexamples |
| Open research question | Unsettled | State what evidence would change assessment |
| Speculative scenario | Scenario, not observation | Keep visibly bounded |
Maturity is not alarm
A lower maturity label does not mean a claim is false. It means the site should make less confident public claims.
