Restructure economics doc into 27 org-roam interlinked nodes
Replace monolithic passepartout-economics.org with directory of org-roam style nodes, each with :ID: property and cross-references using [[id:uuid][title]] format. 27 nodes organized by theme: - Core: index, triad overview, agora, stoa - Revenue: verification appliance, domain gate packages, evaluation harness, skill marketplace, agora usernames, PDS service, compute marketplace - Strategy: investment thesis, moats, licensing, patents, AI industry impact - Analysis: lisp economics, sufficiency flip, time estimates, cost structure, gate rule encoding, upgrade lifecycle, biology parallels, symbolics comparison - Big money: verification monopoly, infrastructure lock-in Old file kept as archive with redirect links to new structure.

#+title: Comparison with Symbolics Genera

#+filetags: :passepartout:history:symbolics:comparison:

|

| | Symbolics Genera (1980s) | Passepartout (2020s) |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Lines | ~1,000,000 | ~21,000 (self-driving target) |
|
||||
| Developer-years | ~10 years, large team | ~1 year, 1-3 devs |
|
||||
| OS | Built from scratch in assembly + Lisp | Runs on Linux (free OS layer) |
|
||||
| Hardware | Custom Lisp Machine (entire computer) | PCIe card (FPGA or Tenstorrent) |
|
||||
| Market | $50K-$100K/seat | $5K-$50K/appliance |
|
||||
| Scope | Full OS + environment | Cognitive agent + hardware acceleration |
|
||||
|
||||
The Symbolics comparison is instructive: they built a full Lisp OS from scratch. Passepartout runs on Linux, providing the OS layer for free. The hardware integration is a PCIe card, not a replacement of the entire host. The scope is dramatically smaller — ~2% of the code for a fraction of the functionality that matters most.
