Sacred Geometry

REGISTERED BUT NOT RESEARCHED. This label arrives as a dangling soft reference from style_geometric and style_dotwork, invisible to the validator because styles_seed.common_themes is an unchecked column. It is registered so the reference resolves and so the concept has an owner - and NOT researched, because no source was found in this task that separates 'sacred geometry' as a design vocabulary from the living religious practice it draws on, and mandala is already routed to T11.10 as a sacred form. No description of its visual content is offered here because none is sourced. T11.10 owns the ruling.

Cultural notes
Entangled with living religious practice by construction: the geometric forms called 'sacred' are sacred to someone. Registering it as a plain aesthetic theme would be the tribal flattening in a different shape, so it is registered as an explicitly unresearched placeholder carrying the flag. An unsourced row is the honest state here; a plausible description would not have been.

    Promoted from themes_seed.compatible_styles of theme_sacred_geometry ('geometric'); styles_seed.common_themes of style_geometric ('sacred geometry'). Asserted independently from both ends of the relation; deduped to one edge. Confidence is the LOWER of the contributing rows, not the higher. Provenance inherited from the parent row(s): source_tattoolife_geometric; source_tattooing101_styles_list; the first is carried in source_id. compatible_with is symmetric; recorded once, traversable from either endpoint. No new fact: this edge restates a value already present in the corpus. STRENGTH 0.75 set by the T11.11c rule: this pairing is asserted by TWO parent rows, one from each endpoint's own association column; the pack's scale reads 0.75 as 'frequent'. Inputs are corpus counts only - no source count, tier or confidence is used.
