Shay e831ed2615 feat(comprehend): complete 3-domain comprehension organ (syllogism + total_ordering)
Phase 2a r2/r3/r4 of the redefined plan: the general comprehension reader now
reads THREE independent-gold reasoning domains end-to-end (prose -> MeaningGraph
-> projection -> independent oracle -> answer vs gold), all wrong=0, and all
three are wired into the capability index.

reader.py — new domain-agnostic templates (function words + order; parse-or-refuse):
  - categorical E/I/O: "no Xs are Ys"->disjoint, "some Xs are Ys"->intersects,
    "some Xs are not Ys"->some_not  (A "all Xs are Ys"->subset already existed)
  - "therefore <categorical>" -> conclusion QUERY (same neutral predicate vocab)
  - comparative facts: "<X> [is] <comp> [than] <Y>" -> less(...), closed
    less/greater comparator lexicon, elided-copula support
  - sort query ("sort ascending|descending", "... order from <low> to <high>")
    and compare query ("compare <X> with <Y>")
  - clause-splitting on commas / leading and|or for multi-clause sentences

projectors.py — to_syllogism (premises + validity conclusion, finite-model size 3)
  and to_total_ordering (less-facts + sort/compare). Both return None when nothing
  is honestly askable of their oracle (caller treats as refusal).

capability_index — wire 3 comprehension lanes into ADAPTERS; re-freeze baseline
  breadth 3->6, capability_score 0.919641->0.814356 (geomean falls BY DESIGN as
  honest partial-coverage domains join; wrong_total stays 0). digest 0a98b9b4...

Scores: set_membership 8/8, syllogism 6/8, total_ordering 4/8 — all wrong=0.

Multi-word NP handling is DEFERRED on purpose, not missed: the gold lanes
canonicalize multi-word NPs three contradictory ways ("North station"->"north",
"Level one"->"level_one", "metal objects"->"metal"), so no single general rule is
wrong=0-safe. The reader refuses multi-word NPs until the gold lanes carry a
canonicalization contract. Every refusal is a genuine harder phenomenon
(multi-word NP, adjectival predicate, trailing tokens) — never a readable case
silently dropped.

Tests: reader templates, projector unit tests, syllogism/total_ordering
end-to-end wrong=0 with pinned counts, capability breadth 3->6. 138 targeted +
87 smoke green. Lane SHAs 8/9 (sole miss = public_demo env wall-clock flake).

"""The general comprehension reader — disciplined Path β (Phase 2a / 2b).
Reads subject/relation/object STRUCTURE symbolically from the token sequence via
domain-agnostic templates keyed on FUNCTION WORDS + ORDER, then mints content as
``MeaningGraph`` entities/relations + ``Query`` objects. The field provably cannot
recover this structure (the holonomy fold is lossy/non-invertible — see the
α-falsification in ``docs/analysis/phase2-general-comprehension-organ-scope-2026-06-05.md``);
the field's honest role is grounding/coherence, not composition.
Refusal-first: a clause that matches no template, a filler that is not a clean
identifier, an unrecognized plural, a MULTI-WORD noun phrase, or a role conflict
all REFUSE — never guess. That keeps ``wrong=0`` at the comprehension layer
(refusal is success; a fabricated reading is the only failure).
Templates (function-word + order; domain-agnostic — the same templates read
animals, professions, geography, kin, metals, ranks):
membership / subsumption (set_membership shapes)
- ``<X> is a|an <Y>`` -> member(individual=X, class=Y)
- ``the <X> is a|an <Y>`` -> member(X, Y)
- ``is [the] <X> a|an <Y>?`` -> Query member(X, Y)
- ``are all <Xs> <Ys>?`` -> Query subset(sing X, sing Y)
categorical (syllogism shapes); subject/predicate are plural classes
- ``all <Xs> are <Ys>`` -> subset(sing X, sing Y) (A)
- ``no <Xs> are <Ys>`` -> disjoint(sing X, sing Y) (E)
- ``some <Xs> are <Ys>`` -> intersects(sing X, sing Y) (I)
- ``some <Xs> are not <Ys>`` -> some_not(sing X, sing Y) (O)
- ``therefore <categorical>`` -> Query of the same predicate (the conclusion)
ordering (total_ordering shapes); X/Y are single items
- ``<X> [is] <less-comp> [than] <Y>`` -> less(X, Y)
- ``<X> [is] <greater-comp> [than] <Y>`` -> less(Y, X)
- ``compare <X> with <Y>`` -> Query compare(X, Y)
- ``sort [ascending|descending]`` /
``... order from <low> to <high>`` -> Query sort(order)
Multi-word noun phrases are REFUSED on purpose: the staged gold lanes canonicalize
multi-word NPs three contradictory ways ("North station"->"north", "Level one"->
"level_one", "metal objects"->"metal"), so no single general rule is wrong=0-safe.
Until the gold lanes carry a canonicalization contract, the only honest reading of
a multi-word NP is refusal.
