Loeb Principal Doctrines print the compact neither to harm nor be harmed as a peace rule
The same KD 31–33 cluster, in Hicks, also states a reciprocal non-harm compact. In the causal graph this event strengthens Humanitarian Access, a driver that strengthens People Internally Displaced by Conflict and Violence (IDMC) — a worsening welfare path.

The same KD 31–33 cluster, in Hicks, also states a reciprocal non-harm compact. The worsening ‘nothing in itself’ reading is the twin row.
Context
A compact can be a ceasefire. It can also exclude those who cannot contract. Store both signs.
Epicurus is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.
Who was responsible
Contribution type and responsibility level for each recorded actor — not sole-author shorthand.

Garden founder as named in later editions and finds. Printers, excavators, and editors publish the instrument.
