Volatile assumptions
- Can distribution, hardening, redundancy, reconstruction, diplomacy, and economic continuity reduce attack incentives without threatening mass retaliation?
- Legal, regulator, programme, supplier, standards, and international-framework status can change independently of this local record.
Scenario dependencies
Disconfirming evidence
- Concentrated energy, semiconductor, communications, time, key, and maintenance dependencies can defeat nominal geographic distribution.
- A competent authority, current primary source, or observed physical condition contradicting the local assumption.
Affected public claims
- Civilian nuclear strategy record EVI-NS-019
- No-current-operation boundary
- Weapons-abstinence and non-proliferation position
