What becomes possible if Tier 3 is the operating standard?
Sections 2–8 of the paper develop the case in diagnostic terms — what is failing, what it costs, what would close the gap. Q-0006 is the constructive counterpart: if the architectural shift to Tier 3 occurred, what changes about how research is preserved, used, and built upon?
This question is generative rather than evaluative. It asks the working group to enumerate the specific institutional, scientific, and regulatory consequences of Tier 3 becoming the operating standard rather than the architectural aspiration.
Candidate answers in the paper: universal coverage for the 73-93% currently outside Tier 2; preservation horizon decoupled from project budget; reanalysis becoming a first-class research activity; verification as a byproduct of operation rather than retrospective reconstruction; compounding downstream reuse extending beyond grant-cycle truncation.
The question deliberately admits answers from outside the paper. New uses, new failure modes that emerge under Tier 3, new institutional postures, new equity considerations — all are valid Claim candidates that addresses Q-0006.
