## 0. Principle
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Credit depends on trust.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A person may receive goods, coin, time, or service now because another person believes repayment or performance will happen later.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That belief may come from:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- reputation
|
|
||||||
- prior dealings
|
|
||||||
- witnesses
|
|
||||||
- written records
|
|
||||||
- collateral
|
|
||||||
- family standing
|
|
||||||
- legal access
|
|
||||||
- fear of consequences
|
|
||||||
- mutual obligation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Credit is not free money.
|
|
||||||
It is delayed settlement under risk.

## 1. Roman-Visible Example
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A trader lacks enough coin to buy oil today.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
One seller refuses him.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Another seller allows him to take the oil and pay after sale in Capua.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The oil is the same.
|
|
||||||
The trader is the same.
|
|
||||||
The difference is trust.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The second seller believes the trader will return, repay, or be held accountable.

|
||||||

## 2. Minimal Credit Structure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Credit requires at least:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. lender or seller
|
|
||||||
2. borrower or buyer
|
|
||||||
3. value advanced
|
|
||||||
4. expected repayment or performance
|
|
||||||
5. time before settlement
|
|
||||||
6. reason for trust
|
|
||||||
7. consequence if trust fails
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Without trust or enforceability, credit collapses.

|
||||||

## 3. Incorrect Modern Assumption
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Incorrect assumption:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
> Credit is only a formal loan.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Correction:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
> Credit can also appear as delayed payment, goods advanced before payment, partnership confidence, tolerated delay, or reputation-based access.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Credit may be informal but still economically powerful.
|
|
||||||

||||||
## 4. Simulation Use
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This principle supports:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- credit_capacity
|
|
||||||
- deferred payment
|
|
||||||
- trust relationships
|
|
||||||
- witness importance
|
|
||||||
- collateral
|
|
||||||
- reputation effects
|
|
||||||
- failed repayment
|
|
||||||
- access differences between actors
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The model should not treat credit as available equally to all actors.
|
|
||||||
|
|

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 5. Canonical Test
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the model sees:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
> The trader can buy without immediate coin.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It must ask:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- who trusts him?
|
|
||||||
- why is he trusted?
|
|
||||||
- is there a witness?
|
|
||||||
- is there collateral?
|
|
||||||
- what is the repayment term?
|
|
||||||
- what happens if he fails?
|
|
||||||
- does his status affect access to credit?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Only then can the credit be understood.
|
|
||||||

||||||
## 6. Success Condition
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the model stops treating credit as automatic borrowing and starts treating credit as trust extended under risk, this file is functioning correctly.
