• What genuinely connects claim-brooks-1991-does-not-cite-dreyfus and claim-kodosky-hopl-reference-list-omits-dennis-citation-unverified-mechanism: not subject matter but the vault's own named method, applied at opposite evidentiary extremes

• The Brooks/Dreyfus and Kodosky/Dennis argument-from-silence checks share the same method — testing an assumed lineage against the founding theorist a later practitioner is measured against — but sit at opposite ends of the evidentiary-strength range the vault's own McGrew-based framework grades

• moc-argument-from-silence's cluster list and the tags on claim-kodosky-hopl-reference-list-omits-dennis-citation-unverified-mechanism do not reflect that it is a structurally identical instance of the vault's negative-citation method

• Did LabVIEW and Max independently invent the patch-cord dataflow metaphor, or do both descend from a common ancestor (e.g. Jack Dennis's MIT dataflow work)?

• Kodosky's own HOPL IV LabVIEW history paper remains unread; a citation-graph lookup suggests its reference list omits Jack Dennis's foundational dataflow paper — `[unverified-mechanism — needs primary]`

• Puckette's own account of Max's origins names no dataflow-computation ancestor — not Jack Dennis, not any academic dataflow lineage
