What it is

The substrate is stable at v3.9.15 — staked, not pending; each revision sharpens the work rather than reopening it. The deferral this section once held is spent: nothing here waits on a proof still to come, and nothing here is provisional.

So the extract, plainly. The library catalogues how people argue against the claim that it is better never to have been — every objection treated as a live move someone actually makes, not a strawman, traced to the mechanism that carries it and grounded in deployments observed in the wild. It does not argue back in order to win; it maps the terrain and grades how well each rebuttal actually holds, weak ones included, in the open. The coda is the part that does not pretend: the suffering-priority floor is not derived from anything more basic, and the coda says so outright — it states the axiom as a stake rather than a proof, then asks why the demand to justify it always falls on the one who would spare a life and never on the one who imposes one.

It is one click. The taxonomy and the force-directed Map 1, the attested real-world deployments, and the coda are all live at library.wuld.ink — single file, no build step, works offline. Read the objections until they feel familiar; read the coda after; then return to the objections changed.

How to enter

Three surfaces behind an outer hash router:

Library → #/library Real-world examples → #/rwe Coda → #/coda

Direct deep-link to a specific objection’s attested deployments: library.wuld.ink/#/rwe/<objection-id>. The library overview surface is sidebar-navigated internally; per-objection deep-linking inside #/library is not externally addressable (state-driven, not hash-driven).

Read the code, see the mechanics, participate

The library substrate is maintained in a separate repository at github.com/alisendjsc-crypto/efilist-argument-library — for anyone interested in seeing the code, the deeper mechanics, or participating in development. The v3.9.15 stable release ships as combined.html (single-file distribution, md5 5f06815341b8f4ada1ea7830c0c65c72, 2,952,543 bytes) under dual license: CC-BY-4.0 (content) + MIT (code).

The substrate is stable and actively refined. Content mutations require a programmatic invariant-derivation harness gate; the md5 is the integrity contract. The wuld.ink umbrella treats the library as an independent reference application linked from this page; cross-link grammar from glossary entries lands on the RWE surface (#/rwe/<id>) where the attested deployments live.
