• What genuinely connects the Falcon-Helmholtz and Puckette-dropped-mention/Petiška-Matthew-effect 'embedding false friend' notes (cosine 0.87): another disjoint-recursion-level false friend, same species as the vault's Kelly-Luccioni precedent

• The cosine-0.87 pairing between the Falcon-Helmholtz object-level false-friend note and the Puckette-Petiška meta-level false-friend note is itself an embedding false friend

• Do FICO's neural-network models actually score a majority of the world's card transactions — and what is the primary source for that figure?

• What is the actual model architecture of HNC's Falcon Fraud Manager — is it specifically a supervised backpropagation feedforward network?

• The vault's cosine-0.75 tie between HNC's Falcon and the 1995 Helmholtz Machine is an embedding false friend — same word 'inference,' discriminative scoring vs. generative cause-modeling
