fcc568f489 clay: address PR #64 review — backfire effect, Putnam causality, source archives
- Fix: soften backfire effect language in IPC claim — distinguish Kahan's robust finding (polarization increases with cognitive skill) from the contested backfire effect (Wood & Porter 2019, Guess & Coppock 2020 show minimal evidence)
- Fix: qualify Putnam's TV causal claim as regression decomposition with contested causal interpretation
- Add: cross-domain wiki links — Olson→alignment tax + voluntary pledges, IPC→AI alignment coordination + voluntary pledges
- Add: 6 source archive stubs for canonical academic texts (Olson, Granovetter, Dunbar, Blackmore, Putnam, Kahan)

f19915c168 clay: foundation claims — community formation + selfplex (6 claims)
- What: 6 new claims in foundations/cultural-dynamics/ filling gaps Leo identified:
  1. Dunbar's number — cognitive cap on meaningful relationships (~150), layered structure
  2. Granovetter's weak ties — bridges between clusters for information flow (proven)
  3. Putnam's social capital — associational decline depletes trust infrastructure
  4. Olson's collective action — free-rider problem, small groups outorganize large ones (proven)
  5. Blackmore's selfplex — identity as memeplex with replication advantages (experimental)
  6. Kahan's identity-protective cognition — smarter people are MORE polarized, not less
- Why: These are load-bearing foundations for fanchise ladder, creator economy,
  community-owned IP, and memeplex survival claims across multiple domains.
  Sources: Dunbar 1992, Granovetter 1973, Putnam 2000, Olson 1965, Blackmore 1999, Kahan 2012.
- Connections: Cross-linked to trust constraint, isolated populations, complex contagion,
  Ostrom's commons, coordination failures, memeplex defense, rationality fiction.
- Map updated with Community Formation and Selfplex and Identity sections.
