  "THE DEFINITION EXACT. The incident, the issue and the variant are the Editor's Guide's definitions (§2.1) in substance, the first verbatim. Checked 2026-10-29 against the MMRS meta-aggregator record of 2026-10-28 and the entity's own pages, re-read the same day.",
  "FIVE QUESTIONS MADE THREE. The guide's test asks five things: a specific event, an identifiable AI system, a causal AI role, harm or credible near harm, and adequate evidence (§3). The composition gives three thresholds, folding the identifiable system into 'AI implication' and dropping adequate evidence.",
