OS3 Table of Contents — Evolution Map

Three swimlanes, left-to-right chronological. Each card is one entry in the respective document; each card's vertical position is its native order in that document. Connector lines show how a topic tracks (or fails to track) across versions.

Read the map like a subway: straight lines = stable, crossing lines = reordering, orange = author edits, red = editor conflicts, purple = topics that exist in only one list.

31 → 28 → 28 body chapters across versions 26 total disagreements between Pat 4/18 and George 4/18 4 conflicts directly involve Aaron Bird 3 Aaron orphan chapters (only one editor lists them)

How to read: The steeper and more tangled the connector lines between two columns, the more reordering happened. Crossings, red lines, and "◆ only here" labels mark the disorganization. Topics tagged A touch Aaron directly.
