02 · Editorial reasoning model

Find the hidden dependency before the market prices it.

The MR score is an internal editorial-priority score. It is not a credit, actuarial, engineering, insurance or investment rating.

Breaking event → hidden dependency → operating consequence → capital consequence → “who else has the same problem?” → client action.
