The source corpus documented in [[projects/Dual-Render Authorship and the Atomic Markdown Double-Brace Grammar|Dual-Render Authorship]] contains 3,430 marked quotation units and 536 reusable passages across *Voice of Reason*, *Simple Reminders*, and *Various Writings*. The later *Simple Reminders* period shows far greater paragraph discipline than *Voice of Reason*: more reusable passages, the arrival of transformational extraction, and the elimination of lowercase quotation openings in the measured corpus. The notation evolved because the writing kept exposing problems that the notation had to learn how to solve. **Source:** [[projects/The Argument in Miniature - How I Write Quotations, Paragraphs, and Reusable Prose|The Argument in Miniature: How I Write Quotations, Paragraphs, and Reusable Prose]] ## Share on Social Media ``` “The measured writing corpus makes the Atomic Markdown architecture difficult to dismiss as conjecture.
