The Königsberg salary is a Prussian fiscal office of a professor, not a unique welfare coefficient and not a later prize
The Königsberg chair carried a Prussian salary. In the causal graph this event weakens the driver Fiscal-Policy Sustainability.
Read the full account
The Königsberg chair carried a Prussian salary. Immanuel Kant's documented role is: He drew a crown salary. Unique thaler series are not invented here. Medium confidence on hardship coefficients.
Context
The patronage-chair row is the appointment. Driver fiscal-policy-sustainability is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.
Naming Immanuel Kant does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 1770-09-01 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.
Why it matters
A royal salary inside an extractive monarchy is a fiscal path of modest weight. The welfare reading on this path is worsening.
