cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Attribute: spatial positioning that signals inferiority, using lower positioning or smaller size.
- Drucker argues that indentation, size, placement, and relative position create hierarchies not as moral values but as relational effects within a system.
- Process-based explanation: if parts are designed too early they become modular; correct timing yields uniqueness.
- Emphasizes the non-pictorial, process-dependent nature of living order.
- Raises spatial division to a foundational creative gesture.
