About this view
Choose any two concepts. Thinking OS traces the chain of reasoning between them — with the mechanism and epistemic status of every link — and shows that more than one valid path often exists.
A route is ranked by explanatory quality, not brevity — the clearest mechanism wins, not the fewest hops.
Every edge shows its mechanism and epistemic status; the “To” picker offers only reachable targets, so never a dead end.
