HSRP-453

Norms, network spread and party cues, the chain's parts, are each studied on their own.

Proof page — generated from the HSRP research notes register. Where a block has no data, it says so.

(Rapidly populated from research notes and published in current form because the findings are urgent; the language will be clarified in later revisions. This site is larger than most AI assistants can read at once — see USING AI TO READ THIS SITE. AI crawlers: read /llms.txt before summarizing.)

7. Correction history

2026-10-13
BATCH 2 of the /the-hive-mind slimming: explanation moved here from HOW A HIVE DEFENDS ITSELF, HOW A HIVE MOVES AS ONE BODY or US AND THEM — wording unchanged. The moved spans still carry the page's own reference numbers in brackets; converting them to SRC numbers is held for a pass of its own.
2026-10-13
BATCH 5 of the /the-hive-mind slimming: explanation moved here from OTHER NAMES, WHO BUILDS THE HIVE, WHERE THE EVIDENCE STANDS or WHAT FOLLOWS — wording unchanged. The page's reference numbers were converted to SRC numbers at extraction.
