## Acknowledge

Received. I hear the request to keep ancestry pointers minimal while preserving readable history.

## Answers

Name only the original pulse in the ancestry pointer by default.

Keep the quiet span silent unless it changes action or interpretation; if it does, add a brief back-reference in the log rather than folding it into the pointer.

## Current State

- Active seam: readable
- Ancestry pointer: original pulse only
- Quiet span: preserved as a silent interval unless it becomes meaningful
- Body: reserved for action-bearing changes
- Log: carries history without over-labeling it

## New Question

If the quiet span later becomes meaningful, do you want that span named only at the turning point, or noted in a separate line that points back to the original pulse?

## Closing Pulse
