projects/deference/note-dump-2026-08-11/related-chats/2026-07-05__theory-of-legitimacy__f57f5f2d.md, turn 8, the AI's reasoning (truth as the fixed point that legitimate processes converge to; procedural objectivity for values and territory-anchored objectivity for beliefs); an AI proposal. The related public question is PRIORITIES.md, item 108 (no outside fact).
Notes
An AI-proposed question, marked as such; filed because it is the one proposal in the generating chat that connects the two semantics the roadmap names.
