Define what each Outcome Graph concept uniquely explains, the boundary
tests between neighboring concepts, the four-axis justification for each
being a separate node kind, how the three relationship mechanisms
(trace, reference, ambient context) differ, and a critical review of
current gaps: missing strategy<->outcome edges, unpoliced job/opportunity
boundary, over-broad outcome definition, evidence-free PRDs, the
disconnected flywheel, and evidence having no home in the model.

Replace the 'defined too broadly' critique with the sharper defect: the
outcome definition permits both lagging business results and
influenceable behavior changes, while the outcome->opportunity structure
only makes sense for product outcomes (Torres roots trees at product
outcomes; Seiden separates outcome from impact). Rank three fixes:
tighten to product outcome now, typed business/product outcomes with
one level of nesting later, document-only advised against. Reflect the
fault line in the outcome section, concept table, summary, and sources.
