Evidence System

Every claim carries exactly one class:

Class	Meaning
PRIMARY SOURCE	Classical text, original document
HISTORICAL EVIDENCE	Verifiable historical record
SCHOLARLY INTERPRETATION	Published scholarship
TRADITIONAL / LINEAGE INTERPRETATION	What the tradition says
MODERN RESEARCH	Published scientific study
PRACTITIONER EXPERIENCE	Anonymized personal report
CONTEMPORARY COMMUNITY OBSERVATION	Observed community discourse
EDITORIAL SYNTHESIS	Our own analysis, clearly labeled
UNCERTAIN	Insufficient evidence — preserved as uncertainty

These classes are never mixed.
