Calibrate the soul layer: innocent harvests, sane gifts, healing path

Browse Source

Run 5 findings: justice arrived (selfish health 31-64 vs nature 100, all
108 refusals theirs) but two pathologies emerged: the whole village maxed
others-regard debris because the commons penalty line (50%) sat above the
nature harvest floor (45%) and debris had no clearing path; and warmth-
weighted asking + near-total gift transfers produced a 2,501-gift winter
food-swapping loop.

Fixes: commons line lowered to 40% (respectful harvesting never grazes
it; strip-harvesting lives deep inside it); gifts capped at 3 with a
kept reserve of 5; asking gated on genuine hunger; and giving now heals
the giver slightly (-0.003 others-regard vs +0.02 per refusal) — harm
stays an order of magnitude easier than healing.
