This edition starts from an empty future-native v2 research scaffold. The named
source edition is retained only as invalidated research history. Its worlds,
needs, marketplace units, categories, candidates, prior-art work, ranks,
listings and current-product material are not copied or treated as defaults.

The edition-local `INVALIDATED_SOURCE_RECEIPT.json` binds only the invalidated
source manifest and disposition. It is a historical disposition receipt, not a
freeze receipt, comparison input or permission to carry catalogue material.

## Local future-native synthesis — 3 August 2026

- Research remains bound to the 2 August 2026 evidence cutoff.
- Six 2031 worlds led to 60 actors, 74 needs, eight proposed categories and 72
  sealed candidate concepts.
- Six categories advanced to a local storefront projection; two remain watch
  categories.
- Six bounded category authors selected 10 of 12 sealed concepts per category,
  producing 60 listings and 12 recorded exclusions.
- Rankings use a disclosed 100-point authored judgement across future distance,
  need scale, geographic breadth, marketplace clarity, 2031 delivery readiness,
  and trust and safety. Scores are not probabilities.
- A bounded exact-name search records `no-material-collision-found` for all 60
  final fictional names. It is not legal, trademark, company, domain, language
  or cultural clearance.
- A larger present-day semantic-overlap review was stopped when its category
  packets could not be inspected without output truncation. No partial verdict
  was accepted; the limitation is public.
- The compiled storefront remains a local research projection. This entry does
  not freeze the edition, advance the sealed research lifecycle, deploy the
  site or authorise publication.
