Articles that meet both of the following conditions:

should NOT be treated as official doctrine, confirmed theory, or core institutional knowledge of ICI.

These articles should be interpreted as:
- exploratory notes
- reflective fragments
- hypotheses
- unresolved concerns
- informal problem statements

- everyday observations that may later inform ICI's thinking

They may be referenced when the user intentionally asks for exploratory, informal, reflective, or background context.

When referencing them, clearly distinguish them from official ICI positions, established theories, or service descriptions.
