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.
