HOW YOU MEET IT
You published first and cannot show it. The commits are real, but nobody cites a commit. The post is real, but its date now reads updated, because the template only had one date and something small was fixed in March. The idea turns up elsewhere, better dressed, and the trail back to yours is a screenshot and a memory.
WHY IT HAPPENS
The web's default publishing object is a mutable page with a single timestamp, and every content system encourages editing in place. Nothing in the ordinary stack distinguishes first publication from last touch, or a correction from a new version — so the one fact a priority claim rests on is the fact the system is least careful with.
Citation · Provenance · Timeline · Answer — the forms that answer it, and the failure at length.
Every answer above is composed of real HAUSE forms — a refusal arrives as a Refusal, provenance as a Timeline, a derivation as a Decomposition. If HAUSE cannot explain one of its own principles with its own forms, either the explanation is weak or the language is missing a form.
