-**U.S. Economic proposition:** we are describing participation in and enjoyment of the U.S. economic system and U.S. economy, including a proposed **Economy 2 or greater** state. This is a programmatic proposition, not an independently established financial, governmental, or legal status.

 **Capitalism / software-development proposition:** **Max Rupplin** is identified as the lead of a proposed cause-oriented software-development program. The **Ubuntu Grand** is proposed as a fine seed of capitalism: a constructive seed from which software, productive activity, and economic value may be developed. “Seed” is a programmatic metaphor and does not independently establish ownership, valuation, or legal rights.

+## Law
+
+**Law** identifies the applicable legal and regulatory framework governing an event, actor, custody transition, production process, or release. A reference to law is not itself a legal conclusion; authoritative legal sources and applicable jurisdiction must be identified when a legal determination is asserted.
+
+## Good vs. Evil
+
+**Good vs. Evil** identifies a moral/philosophical distinction used by the program for normative analysis. It may inform program values and governance, but it does not replace factual evidence, legal standards, due process, or an adjudicated determination.
+
 ## Morals / Program Governance
 
 **Morals / Program Governance** identifies declared principles, constraints, duties, policies, standards, or governance rules used to guide a program.
