• Polanyi's Logic of Liberty is textually continuous with his later tacit-knowledge epistemology, not a separate chapter of his life

• Dreyfus's 1972 What Computers Can't Do directly names, quotes, and cites Michael Polanyi — alongside Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty — as a source for its embodied/tacit-skill argument

• In the same 1972 passage, Dreyfus's engagement with Polanyi is critical, not endorsement — he argues Polanyi's own account of rule-following undermines Polanyi's point

• Polanyi Society scholars reviewing Dreyfus and Taylor's 2015 Retrieving Realism find Polanyi's influence nearly absent, complicating any claim of a durable career-long Polanyi debt

• A named Tier-2 analyst (Burja) and a Tier-3 CEIPI-hosted piece independently characterize the ASML/Zeiss EUV advantage as resting on tacit, cross-organizational know-how rather than patents as the primary protective mechanism

• Codification is the shared hinge between automation and imitation: the same non-codifiability is an obstacle in CANONIC and a moat in EUV

• Does the primary text of Reed & DeFillippi (1990) support the assembled 'tacitness...causal ambiguity...barriers to imitation' quote as a continuous phrase?

• Chain-of-thought is the anti-EUV: reasoning is inherently codified, so it distills cheaply and can't form a tacit moat — hiding the trace is manufactured secrecy
