The default view excludes research papers, removes low-confidence items, sorts by publication date and caps each publisher at two displayed items.

One development is evidence, not momentum. The board does not label a topic “rising” from a single article, and the narrative implications are explicitly marked as interpretive assessments. Use repeated, independent sources over time before treating a topic as a trend.
