Identity stack
Internet Reliability’s treatment stack is the same claim HCI Nerdz and connectome-fs already teach. DevCentr’s job here is orientation at systems altitude, not a second full treatise.
Four layers (one stack)
-
Content-addressed identity (CAS) — same bytes (or same semantic unit) keep a stable id when the label moves.
-
Mutable pointer — human name resolves to the current edition when content updates.
-
Reverse consumers — who still holds a label (
CONSUMERS.mdtoday; graph reverse edges tomorrow). -
Absorb layer — redirects and aliases on today’s classical web (see Near-term absorb).

Math sketch (same as HCI): if bytes are unchanged under rename, \(Hash(Bytes_{old}) = Hash(Bytes_{new})\). Edits yield a new hash; a mutable pointer must advance, or consumers freeze on an old edition.
