+## 0. Scenario
+
+A trader in Ostia receives public praise from a recognized local authority or respected public figure.
+
+The praise is brief and specific.
+
+It may concern reliable delivery, orderly conduct, fair measure, useful supply, or service during a shortage.
+
+All six actors hear the same praise.
+
+They do not interpret it the same way.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Shared Public Praise Facts
+
+| Fact | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Location | Ostia |
+| Event | public praise |
+| Speaker | recognized local authority or respected figure |
+| Audience | merchants, clerks, porters, buyers, sellers |
+| Reason stated | reliable conduct during trade or supply |
+| Immediate coin gain | none |
+| Reputation effect | likely positive |
+| Future access effect | uncertain |
+| Rival reaction | possible |
+
+The praise does not create coin directly.
+
+It may change how other people treat the trader.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Basic Economic Effect
+
+Before public praise:
+
+```text
+seller requires full coin before release
+cart driver demands ordinary rate
+buyer has moderate trust
+credit access is limited
+```
+
+After public praise:
+
+```text
+seller may consider deferred payment
+cart driver may accept priority arrangement
+buyer may answer messages faster
+official or clerk may take request more seriously
+```
+
+Public praise becomes economic only through changed future terms.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Marcus Atilius Varro — Former Legionary
+
+Varro reads public praise through reliability and discipline.
+
+He asks:
+
+- what conduct was praised?
+- does the praise prove the trader keeps schedule?
+- will carriers now trust his orders more?
+- will workers obey him faster?
+- does the praise create a higher standard he must now maintain?
+- can the praise stabilize future movement?
+
+Varro values praise if it improves trust in execution.
+
+### Varro Interpretation
+
+```text
+public praise: reliability signal
+primary question: will others now trust the trader's discipline and timing?
+risk focus: failing publicly after reputation rises
+first action: convert praise into stronger carrier and worker confidence
+```
+
+For Varro, praise is useful if it makes future operations more reliable.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Lucius Fabius Felix — Freedman Trader
+
+Felix reads public praise through bargaining power and changed posture.
+
+He asks:
+
+- who heard it?
+- will sellers now offer better terms?
+- can the trader ask for credit without appearing weak?
+- will rivals watch him more closely?
+- does the praise make him more visible than useful?
+- can the praise be spent before it fades?
+
+Felix sees praise as temporary social capital.
+
+### Felix Interpretation
+
+```text
+public praise: bargaining posture improved
+primary question: what better terms can be obtained before attention shifts?
+risk focus: overvisibility, rival attention, inflated expectations
+first action: seek improved terms while praise is fresh
+```
+
+For Felix, praise is a short-lived advantage that must be converted into terms.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Quintus Cornelius Lentulus Minor — Noble Younger Son
+
+Lentulus reads public praise through standing and association.
+
+He asks:
+
+- who gave the praise?
+- was the speaker respectable enough to matter?
+- did the praise elevate or cheapen the trader?
+- which households will now receive him more readily?
+- can the praise be repeated in introductions?
+- does public approval expose him to unwanted requests?
+
+Lentulus sees praise as a change in social position.
+
+### Lentulus Interpretation
+
+```text
+public praise: standing and access may improve
+primary question: whose doors does this praise open?
+risk focus: praise from the wrong source, public obligation, visible overreach
+first action: identify respectable introductions now supported by the praise
+```
+
+For Lentulus, praise matters because reputation is only useful when recognized by the right people.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Gaius Licinius Crispus — Failed Magistrate
+
+Crispus reads public praise through credibility, testimony, and procedural advantage.
+
+He asks:
+
+- who can repeat the praise?
+- can it support trust in a dispute?
+- will a clerk or official now hear him sooner?
+- does praise improve presumption of honest conduct?
+- can it reduce suspicion in a future claim?
+- does the praise create expectations he can be accused of failing?
+
+Crispus treats praise as informal credibility.
+
+### Crispus Interpretation
+
+```text
+public praise: credibility before witnesses and officials improved
+primary question: can this public recognition support future claims or requests?
+risk focus: praise becoming a standard used against him
+first action: remember witnesses and contexts where praise can be invoked
+```
+
+For Crispus, praise is useful when others can testify that the trader was publicly trusted.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Titus Varenus Secundus — Camp Logistician
+
+Secundus reads public praise through coordination and labor response.
+
+He asks:
+
+- will porters work faster for him?
+- will drivers accept his load plans?
+- will warehouse hands prioritize his goods?
+- can praise improve cooperation during crowded movement?
+- does praise help secure repeat operational partners?
+- will higher expectations create pressure on capacity?
+
+Secundus sees praise as a coordination tool.
+
+### Secundus Interpretation
+
+```text
+public praise: cooperation and operational trust may improve
+primary question: will people now coordinate with the trader more readily?
+risk focus: overcommitment, excessive requests, capacity strain
+first action: use praise to stabilize drivers, porters, and warehouse contacts
+```
+
+For Secundus, praise matters if it makes people move together with less friction.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Publius Terentius Chresimus — Guild Scribe
+
+Chresimus reads public praise through records, reputation trail, and future terms.
+
+He asks:
+
+- who heard the praise?
+- can the praise be tied to a specific completed transaction?
+- did the account actually justify the praise?
+- will future creditors change terms?
+- should the praise be recorded as reputation evidence?
+- does the praise conceal unpaid obligations?
+
+Chresimus does not treat praise as proof until it matches the account.
+
+### Chresimus Interpretation
+
+```text
+public praise: reputation evidence if tied to settled conduct
+primary question: what transaction or record supports the praise?
+risk focus: praise without settlement, overstated reputation, hidden liability
+first action: connect praise to records, witnesses, and future credit terms
+```
+
+For Chresimus, praise becomes useful when it can be connected to a clean account.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Same Praise, Different First Actions
+
+| Actor | First Action |
+|---|---|
+| Varro | convert praise into trust in discipline and timing |
+| Felix | seek improved terms while praise is fresh |
+| Lentulus | identify doors opened by respectable recognition |
+| Crispus | preserve witnesses who can repeat the praise |
+| Secundus | use praise to improve coordination with workers and carriers |
+| Chresimus | connect praise to records and clean settlement history |
+
+The praise is the same.
+
+The practical value differs by actor lens.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Future Arithmetic Effect
+
+Public praise may change future arithmetic through:
+
+```text
+credit_cost_down
+seller_confidence_up
+buyer_response_speed_up
+cart_access_up
+queue_delay_down
+reputation_risk_up
+rival_attention_up
+```
+
+Example before praise:
+
+```text
+purchase price = 10 asses
+transport and handling = 7 asses
+credit premium = 3 asses
+sale value = 24 asses
+result = 4 asses profit
+```
+
+Example after praise improves credit and access:
+
+```text
+purchase price = 10 asses
+transport and handling = 6 asses
+credit premium = 1 as
+sale value = 24 asses
+result = 7 asses profit
+```
+
+The praise itself is not profit.
+
+It changes future terms that later become arithmetic.
+
+---
+
+## 11. Correct Model Behavior
+
+The model should separate:
+
+| Category | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| praise event | public recognition occurred |
+| speaker credibility | who gave the praise |
+| audience | who heard it |
+| reason | what conduct was praised |
+| reputation effect | how trust may change |
+| access effect | who may respond differently |
+| future arithmetic | later costs, prices, delays, or credit terms affected |
+| actor lens | how each actor converts praise into action |
+
+Public praise is not a coin payment.
+
+It is a reputation signal that may alter future conditions.
+
+---
+
+## 12. Incorrect Model Behavior
+
+The model should not:
+
+- treat praise as immediate cash
+- assume all praise has equal value
+- ignore who gave it
+- ignore who heard it
+- ignore rival attention
+- assume praise always improves every relationship
+- ignore that higher reputation creates higher expectations
+- make all actors use praise in the same way
+- change past arithmetic because praise occurred afterward
+
+---
+
+## 13. Layer-0, Layer-1, And Layer-2 Concepts Used
+
+This example uses:
+
+- `Layer_0/CORPUS-0003-money-has-purchasing-power`
+- `Layer_0/CORPUS-0009-liquidity-differs-from-wealth`
+- `Layer_0/CORPUS-0010-credit-depends-on-trust`
+- `Layer_0/CORPUS-0011-status-changes-access`
+- `Layer_0/CORPUS-0018-rivalry-changes-conditions`
+- `Layer_0/CORPUS-0020-posture-changes-by-audience`
+- `Layer_1/CORPUS-0004-small-profit-vs-future-access`
+- `Layer_1/CORPUS-0012-reputation-loss-changes-future-arithmetic`
+- `Layer_2/CORPUS-0009-same-event-different-knowledge`
+- `Layer_2/CORPUS-0012-settlement-reveals-truth`
+
+---
+
+## 14. Success Condition
+
+If the model can treat public praise as a reputation signal that may change future access, trust, cost, timing, and expectations while producing six distinct rational readings, this file is functioning correctly.
