property
Let an agent explain property as owned objects, relay how ownership of goods is conceived in law and economics from reference sources, describe kinds of owned things, and distinguish this sense from property rights, from attributes in science and from data properties.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.
