Renamed for local resemblance

Candidate name for a pattern the vault is watching, not yet promoted to a hub: a form or text crossing a linguistic/cultural border loses the name tied to what it originally depicted and is re-anchored to a new name drawn from the receiving culture's own visual vocabulary. First noticed 2026-07-09 comparing lattice multiplication (renamed for a window grille) and Kalila wa-Dimna (retitled at each stop); as of 2026-07-22 the vault has four candidate instances across four domains (mathematics, literature, chess, playing cards) — real recurrence, but still short of the operating spec's ~5-note MOC threshold, and two of the four legs are Tier-4-sourced and flagged [unverified-mechanism]. Tracked at question-transmission-chains-renamed-for-local-resemblance-pattern; graduates to hub (or an MOC directly) if a fifth clean instance surfaces.
