Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives. Two instruments. Mixed effects of Galileo is confined under house arrest from 1633 as a dated movement constraint are separate paths.

Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, museums, and adaptations are not converted into extra lifetime acts.

That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself.

Shared responsibility is part of Galileo is confined under house arrest from 1633 as a dated movement constraint. Naming Galileo Galilei does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 1633-07-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.
