02 · Editorial reasoning model
News becomes useful when the hidden dependency is exposed.
The MR score ranks editorial relevance; it is not an investment, credit, engineering, actuarial or probability model.
Does the event reveal a system, process, supplier or utility that can stop output?
Can the event move into capex, financing, valuation, insurance, liquidity or credit?
Does it matter to aerospace, defense, space, AI infrastructure or strategic manufacturing?
Can a Southern California stakeholder act on the signal?
