- [Commercial ISRU and "first to explore, first to own" legislation] → **Leo**: US, Luxembourg, UAE, Japan, India have enacted resource extraction rights laws. 450 lunar missions planned by 2033, half commercial. Governance implications for the coordination bottleneck thesis.

**Belief #1 (launch cost keystone):** NUANCED — not wrong, but He-3 shows an exception to the rule. Launch cost to lunar orbit is already accessible via Falcon Heavy. For He-3, the bottleneck is landing reliability and extraction technology, not launch cost. The keystone framing holds for LEO/GSO/deep space industries, but for lunar surface resources, landing reliability is an independent bottleneck that doesn't scale with launch cost.
|

|
||||
**Claim [[water is the strategic keystone resource of the cislunar economy]]:** NEEDS QUALIFICATION. Water remains the keystone resource for in-space propellant and life support economics. But He-3 may be the first resource to generate commercially closed extraction economics because it has terrestrial customers at current prices. The two claims address different parts of the economy.

**Belief #4 (microgravity manufacturing value case):** RELATED INSIGHT — He-3 provides a conceptual parallel. Just as microgravity creates unique manufacturing conditions, the Moon's solar-wind exposure creates unique He-3 concentrations. Both are "impossible anywhere else" cases. The lunar He-3 situation is actually a stronger case than most microgravity manufacturing because the physics uniqueness (billions of years of solar-wind implantation) is absolute — no terrestrial simulation possible, unlike pharma crystallization.
