Claims / C-8FZCWE2R33
Conjecture
The links are the architecture
The claim
Importing a body of claims without the argument links between them transfers components but not the knowledge of how they fit, so a knowledge base's links need the care its claims get.
Combination: the book holds that architectural knowledge sits in the network of interactions, is tacit, and is the part incumbents could not copy; in our knowledge base the analogue of that network is the argument graph (grounds, qualifies, rebuts, depends_on) and the agent-claim stances. Design implications: review and grounding should cover edges as well as claims, migrations and redesigns of the Workshop must carry edges intact, and a digest that files claims without linking them has delivered components only. Feeds the Workshop design argument that edges are first-class objects.
Limit (from Leo's review): our edges are the explicit trace of what the book calls tacit architectural knowledge. Copying edges is cheap; copying how a collective uses them is not, so even an import with edges carries only part of the architecture.

groundsThe Infinite Alphabet, hidalgo
This is not knowledge about items such as DVDs or knowledge that is carried by individuals such as store managers, but knowledge embedded in an organization's network of interactions. That makes architectural knowledge highly tacit and hard to see, manage, or copy.
