Statement
The question of what legitimacy is, and how it enters the trust principles, is settled well enough for the rest of the roadmap to build on it.

projects/deference/note-dump-2026-08-11/notes/roadmap.md, Stage 2: "Then figure out this legitimacy stuff, and work on the other stuff described in li-deference.md — all the open problems I've already listed for the formalism."
Notes
A want filed from the maintainer's own words; the state of affairs is the filing session's factual rendering of "figure out this legitimacy stuff". It sits in this frame because the quoted sentence names legitimacy. Connected by one evidence edge from the plan that states a legitimacy-conditioned trust principle at the LI register; the other plans of the frame bear on it too, and a connect unit offers them.
