Strand emphasis
Foregrounded, supporting, latent: how attention is directed across the strands without ranking them, and why one strand must not bypass another.
Flow, Tribe, and Prosper remain available within every PLAIT, but they do not require equal attention or explanation.
| Emphasis | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Foregrounded | The strand contains the primary uncertainty, responsibility, friction, decision, or opportunity at this moment. |
| Supporting | The strand materially helps the foregrounded work but does not require equal attention. |
| Latent | The strand remains part of the context but does not need active articulation right now. |
Foregrounding directs attention. It does not rank the strands or remove the others from the weave.
One strand must not be used to bypass another. Flow should not optimize around a relational conflict that needs direct Tribe work; Tribe should not become endless conversation that avoids a Flow decision; Prosper should not use targets or growth to override health, boundaries, trust, or the wider PLAIT. A healthy braid does not make one strand carry what the others refuse to address.
