Extract the valid insight from each past schema version by
Extract the valid insight from each past schema version by understanding what problem it was solving in context, rather than dismissing it as uniformly naive.
Why This Is a Principle
Grounds to memory being reconstructive (Memory is reconstructive, not reproductive—humans rebuild), hindsight bias (Hindsight Bias and Calibration Necessity), and belief perseverance (Belief Perseverance Against Contradictory Evidence). The principle prescribes treating past schemas as context-rational rather than simply wrong, protecting against temporal chauvinism. This is a clear principle: derived from axioms about memory and bias, actionable, and generalizable across all temporal schema work.
