Saddle Points (weakly-unstable solutions)
associated_with
Weakly-unstable fixed points in latent space that trap and redirect reasoning trajectories, identified as the mechanistic cause of fractal basins.

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
