Later lives print expulsions of the school as a civic embargo of a club
Improving path as weakening of a civic embargo on a minority club — low confidence, stored as later narrative of pressure, not as a verified lifting of sanctions. In the causal graph this event weakens Sanctions Pressure, a driver that strengthens Poverty headcount ratio at $3.00 a day (2021 PPP) (% of population) — an improving welfare path.

Improving path as weakening of a civic embargo on a minority club — low confidence, stored as later narrative of pressure, not as a verified lifting of sanctions.
Context
Twin of faction violence. Modest and legendary.
Pythagoras 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.
Why it matters
Printed expulsion-story is not a modern sanctions list.
Who was responsible
Contribution type and responsibility level for each recorded actor — not sole-author shorthand.
Pythagoras
PersonDirect responsibility
responsibility level 0.15 · verified
Named sage as heading of later school reports. Iamblichus, Euclid’s editors, and later math teachers publish the instrument.
