Viewpoint contribution

E005 adds a platform thesis to Venture Step: technical capability becomes durable when other people can apply it through stable software, tools, and accumulated knowledge. It also reinforces a source discipline. Full-stack design must not be confused with owning every manufacturing step.

Reuse boundaries

Refresh all current company, product, leadership, supply-chain, customer, and technical claims. Never reuse the transcript's in-house manufacturing statement.
