relation family
composition
assigned, not verified What this family covers, what it fails to cover, and every relation string in the graph that lands in it. A family is assigned: two models read the definitions document and named the same kind of relation, or a person ruled where they did not. Verified is the other layer: a quote checked letter-exact against its paragraph and judged by a model of a different family. That was already done before any of this began.
Definition
Part–whole: the subject contains, includes, or is a constituent of the object (either direction; the verb settles which). Includes whole-side totality claims (the-self is-totality-of psyche, 12 §44).
Boundary: the composition/position rule above (nucleus/centre/foundation default to position); union is an act of joining, composition a standing parthood.
Concealment placement: containment-as-concealment (lies-hidden-in, concealed-within, imprisoned-in, harbours) → composition when the claim is in-ness, position when the claim is where; epistemic concealment acts (unlocks-secret-of, obstructs-discovery-of, covers-up) → unclassified(no-family) — recorded as a candidate future family.

Checked against readers of Jung
Checked against 8 works of scholarship: across the sample, 8 of 16 treated items agreed with our family. The sample did not reach this family.the whole table

These families are this project's classification. They are calibrated inside this repository, checked once against outside scholarship on a small sample, and endorsed by nobody. What the layer records is how we sorted relations Jung wrote: a map of assertions, not a reading of him.
