Fig. 1B: the conceptual cartoon — from a society in space to a society in time

The paper's key move drawn as a two-panel partner to the programme grid (now Fig. 1A): on the left, the usual picture — contemporaries exchanging messages (multi-agent systems, one moment on the clock); on the right, the same ecosystem seen along its time axis — a pedigree in which a rare capability (gold dot) is lost under single-parent inheritance, reassembled by merging complementary parents, and re-supplied by grounding from a reality that can say no (the globe). Friendly-robot glyphs, colour-coded capability dots; build.py now stacks multiple PDFs per figure; the Introduction cites 1A and 1B in panel order.
