## Next question: death and persistence
-
The next bounded comparison examines what death costs and what survives revival, especially carried equipment/salvage, recorded clues, discovered locations and the colony. Begin with independent initial positions before sharing preferences. Preserve the brief's revival premise and keep its explanation unresolved. Concrete tradeoffs and dependencies come before a wider map or progression design; no implementation, simulation or playtest is authorized.

Lead and Systems completed independent first positions on death costs and persistence; PM verified the actual files and released them together. Lead now owns the comparison draft, distinguishing recoverable pack loss from different rollback alternatives, with concrete next-trip choices and open recovery/colony dependencies. The draft will receive one focused review before any provisional disposition. No death-loss rule is adopted. The broader question of permanent survivor loss is reserved for a concrete rescue or colony decision; the current comparison need not settle it. Preserve the revival premise and its unresolved explanation. No implementation, simulation or playtest is authorized.
