The shape recurs, the object does not — a low-dimensional-subspace geometry turns up in monkey motor cortex, plastic RNNs, and LLM fine-tuning, but it is measured on different spaces (activity vs. weights), no primary source joins the domains, and even within LLMs the safety-subspace geometry splits three ways; the recurrence is an analogy the vault built, not a reduction the literature demonstrated

A shared shape is not a shared stake — the field keeps invoking the 1871–1932 'War of the Dots' as the modern Nemeth/UEB split's precedent, but the two disputes share only a decentralized, institution-by-institution shape, not the stake, and no one has ever overlaid the maps
