• AI's plan-recognition subfield frames itself as abductive, in a tradition the field traces to Charniak (1985), independent of Wikipedia

• The cosine pairing between claim-inference-logical-types and claim-abductive-framing-scopes-to-ach-cd-not-heuer-ach is a confirmed indirect bridge through the AI plan-recognition-as-abduction literature, not an embedding false friend

• Kautz & Allen's 1986 foundational plan-recognition paper calls itself deductive, not abductive — and its author later ran NSF's national AI institutes program

• Bipartite hop: does the deductive/inductive/abductive typology actually connect to the ACH-CD abduction-scoping claim, or is the cosine-0.84 pairing a false friend?

• The cosine-0.84 pairing between the ACH/abduction and Lucky-Widrow claim-notes is an embedding false friend — no connection exists at the object level

• One level up, the ACH/abduction and Lucky-Widrow notes are a real bridge: both instantiate the argument-from-silence method, which part of the philosophical literature classifies as abductive reasoning

• The echo mistaken for an ancestor — how a CIA analyst's falsification checklist got read as an heir to symbolic AI, when the only lineage anyone could actually source ran to Bayes

• Even granting the abductive characterization, it attaches to ACH-CD (a MITRE counter-deception derivative), not to Heuer's ACH proper

• The one peer-reviewed empirical ACH study (Dhami, Belton & Mandel 2019) compares ACH to Bayesian updating, not abduction, and never mentions Peirce
