What this is and why
How a Talomnia surface explains its own vocabulary at the point of use. An evidence surface that names a quantity — wall, active, disposition, human cost — owes the reader its meaning there, not on another page: sending someone to the glossary to read a column header defeats the page. The affordance is operable by pointer, by touch and by keyboard, announced to assistive technology, driven by the page's language rather than the browser's, and rendered from the SAME projected definition the glossary renders, because two hand-maintained copies of a definition drift. It may not cover the data it explains, may not move the layout it sits in, and may not fire because a pointer crossed it on the way somewhere else. A title attribute satisfies none of this and is refused.
