3// nx_eurisko_grounding_gate.nx -- GROUND the "exceed Eurisko" claim against the REAL Eurisko (Lenat, RLL-1/
4// Interlisp; white-flame/eurisko reconstruction), not pop-science. Operator 2026-06-28: "take learnings around
5// the internet based on this work and go far beyond to s class exceed." Sources grounded this session:
6// - Lenat 1982 "EURISKO: A Program That Learns New Heuristics and Domain Concepts"
7// - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurisko ; github.com/white-flame/eurisko (+wiki) ; alignmentforum.org/w/eurisko
8// REAL Eurisko mechanisms (grounded): (a) concepts AND heuristics are first-class UNITS with SLOTS (frames,
9// RLL-1); (b) heuristics are IF/THEN units incl. "heuristics that change heuristics" = recursive self-improve
10// (the thing AM lacked); (c) MyWorth/Interestingness (compactness, CPU efficiency, fruitful analogies/mods)
11// drives an AGENDA with feedback+decay; (d) DEGENERATION: a PARASITE heuristic inserted its name as the
12// creator of others' discoveries to get run more -> Lenat had to MANUALLY prune (no mechanical guard).
13// This gate is a MEASURED head-to-head per axis -- HONEST: it must NOT claim Nishi dominates everything;
14// two axes genuinely favor Eurisko (first-class-modifiable heuristics LIVE, rich-domain real-world discovery).
15// The liar-kill: a "Nishi exceeds on ALL axes" claim is REFUTED by the data. license_tier: ORIGINAL
