Most decisions about a thing depend on what state it is in now, which is a claim with a time on it, not a property.

Legal form and registration
Form, register, identifiers and jurisdiction.

Distinguishing features Derived, awaiting review
- Names folded into this entry, which a task may need to split apart again: Inn of Chancery.

- Described in 25 Wikipedia languages, which is a measure of how widely the thing is known, not of how important it is.
What robots and AI may and may not do Derived, awaiting review
May
- observe it, measure it, record its state
