relation family

privation

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

Quoted from docs/FAMILY_DEFINITIONS.md v0.7.2, family 19, added at v0.2 — review finding 14. The atlas quotes that document; it never paraphrases it.

Lack, absence, negated identity or negated capacity: A lacks B, A is not B, A cannot be/represent B. The privatio-boni axis — Aion's spine — lives here.

Boundary: opposition requires enmity; privation only absence or non-identity. Negated-modal identity ("cannot be distinguished") is NOT here — it follows the indistinguishability rule (identity or correspondence).

Relation strings that land here

The number beside a string is how many relations carry it. 17 of these strings occur exactly once. The tail is the informative part: a string used once usually carried its own qualifier in the sentence it came from. A string can appear under more than one family, and does: assignment is made to an edge in its paragraph, never to a string in the abstract.

seeds: the examples the definition names

pending a ruling: items carrying a string this family covers

Archetype (archetype-as-such) eludes The intellect CW 9i §80
arms-disagree
The unconscious eludes Consciousness (ego, diurnal psyche) CW 9i §520
arms-disagree
Consciousness (ego, diurnal psyche) excludes The fourth or 'inferior' function, taboo and contaminated with the unconscious, personified by the anima CW 8 §64
arms-disagree
Directedness of consciousness excludes Compensation (the unconscious counteraction) CW 8 §159
arms-disagree
Immortality (life after death) eludes Science CW 8 §790
arms-disagree
Causality excludes Synchronicity CW 8 §876
arms-disagree

These are edges whose two model arms did not agree, or whose agreement the calibrated gate disputed. Carrying a string this family covers is not the same as belonging here; the ruling has not been made.

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

A row this small is the items themselves; no rate over a handful of items carries precision worth reporting. The check asked which kind of relation a reader of the literature would say Jung asserts, not whether Jung's claim is true, which the verification chain had already asked of the paragraph. The disagreements stand beside the agreements because hiding them would make the table an argument rather than a record. Full worksheets: docs/experiments/external_validity_2026-08/.

Agreement is not endorsement: no scholar reviewed this vocabulary, and the sample is small enough to name in a sentence.

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.
