Why this section exists

These notes are not part of the formal UCM‑T corpus. They exist to make the project readable: heuristics, philosophical side remarks, doubts, and criteria for rejecting ideas that sound brilliant but test poorly.

Not a hidden room from the reader — a transparent “workshop”.

🍌 The banana filter

A playful internal marker: if an idea was born in a burst of inspiration (or under questionable conditions), it must survive a night. In the morning, we re‑read and decide whether it is a testable thought or pure nonsense.

Methodological principles (short)

  • Calibration before beauty. Parameters and checks first; grand words later.
  • Layer separation. Almanac = intuition; publications = formalism; notes = workshop.
  • Honest boundary. Where UCM language matches the standard picture, it is translation; where it differs, it is a test.

For an editor‑facing overview, start with Project.

Everything here is a transparent workshop and is not part of the formal UCM-T corpus.
