ideas: editorial sweep — atomization, interlinking, restructuring

- Split competitive-analysis-2026-05.org → TOC + 9 competitor files in
  ideas/competitors/. Dropped date from filename. All competitor UUIDs
  generated, TOC keeps original UUID for backlink continuity.
- Deleted passepartout-economics.org archive (replaced by 27-node KB).
- Inlined 5 'See also' blocks into natural prose (compliance-index,
  first-mover-window, revenue-table, orders-of-magnitude-time,
  native-org-knowledge-base).
- Linked 7 orphan compliance pages back to compliance index + finished
  truncated sentences.
- Linked all 14 Agora requirement docs from topic-relevant pages
  (identity→lisp-machine-security, infrastructure→compute-marketplace,
  social-space→growth-strategy, exchange→agora-contracts, etc.).
- Linked ai-industry-impact from investment-thesis, sufficiency-flip,
  verification-appliance, effects-growth-flywheel (up from 1 to 10+ pages).
- Fixed CREATED timestamps to use git commit dates instead of today.
- Made all links absolute from root (no port inheritance).
- Removed stale agora/docs/ duplicate content.

#+title: EffectsGrowth Flywheel — How Adoption and Consequences Amplify Each Other
#+filetags: :passepartout:strategy:growth:effects:flywheel:
The [[file:triad-systemic-effects.org][effects page]] and the [[file:growth-strategy.org][growth page]] treated two sides of the same process as separate timelines. They are not sequential — effects do not wait for adoption to finish, and adoption does not happen before effects begin. They are interleaved at every scale. Each effect is a growth driver; each growth milestone unlocks new effects.
The [[id:b9fa4b7b-bc61-4d7f-918d-ff687b80f2ba][effects page]] and the [[id:d28adac8-08a1-40c4-ae43-b5d8d7b1743f][growth page]] treated two sides of the same process as separate timelines. They are not sequential — effects do not wait for adoption to finish, and adoption does not happen before effects begin. They are interleaved at every scale. Each effect is a growth driver; each growth milestone unlocks new effects.
The key insight: /every systemic effect is a growth engine for the next phase/. There is no phase where effects passively happen while adoption independently proceeds.

Key observation: the insurance loop is the /completion of the flywheel/. At this point, adoption is no longer driven by the triad's features or benefits — it is driven by the /cost of non-adoption/. The flywheel transitions from pull (people want verification) to push (people cannot afford to be unverified).

1. /First regulator encodes a rule as a gate./ This is the most leveraged event in Phase 01. It converts growth from organic to mandatory in a single domain. Whoever reaches a regulator first — and helps them write that first gate rule — wins that domain permanently.
2. /First insurer prices unverified code higher./ This is the Phase 2→3 transition. It converts growth from pull to push. The insurer does not need 1B instances to act — they need 10K instances with 2+ years of verifiable track records.
