False friends / matches the scan refused
| Candidate | Why it was refused as an automatic reference |
|---|---|
| Heat / Crash / Psycho / Thief / Alien | All are film titles and ordinary English words. A bare string hit does not establish the movie. |
| Can / Beck / Pulp / Eels | All can be musical act names, but also ordinary tokens/names. They are discussed on the music page only where a manually checked RIYL context establishes the act. |
| AAA / ROH / MMA / The Rock | Could refer to wrestling or combat sports, but abbreviations/common phrases are too noisy without local confirmation. |
| Atari | A naive substring scan found Qatari. Boundary-aware review rejects it: there is no secure Atari reference in the frozen corpus from that hit. |
| AI / TENS / Claude | Substring searches are unusable here. “Claude” is also a real recurring character in SPACE FLYING TIGER, so it cannot be automatically read as Anthropic’s model. |
| Ford / Taylor / Washington | Common surnames with multiple possible historical referents. Promoted only in contexts that identify Henry Ford/Frederick Taylor/George Washington. |
| Alain Delon | The corpus contains “Alain” material that likely gestures toward Delon, but the exact full-name string is absent. It remains a phrase/context lead, not an exact-count entry. |
| Orson Welles | A “Welles”/voice tag may be relevant, but the full-name exact string is absent from the frozen source corpus. Do not inflate the ledger. |
What this ledger cannot tell you
It cannot tell whether a source was consciously planted, remembered indirectly, inherited through popular culture, generated by an algorithm, encountered after the work was made, or independently resembled. It cannot tell importance from frequency. It cannot detect every hidden source. The Gurdjieff case already proved that. Its job is narrower: make the visible traffic navigable without lying about what kind of traffic it is.
