Figure 23.3: Four partial substitutes for a compiler of facts

Four partial substitutes for a compiler of facts.
Figure 23.3 Four partial substitutes for a compiler of facts. A draft passes through openable citations, grounding, spot-checks, and a judge; each catches some errors (the stubs into the trays below). None is a sieve without gaps: a thin residual of wrong-but-fluent claims (in accent) passes through all four and reaches the checked draft. Verification here is engineered and partial, never automatic and complete.
