Curation

REVIEW 2026-08-14 · claude-opus-5
Reviewed and endorsed the seeder's own resolution. Cohort review: flagged by the screen as a dropped modifier, but the dropped word is a second word for the same thing rather than a lost qualifier — 'plant' and 'factory' are both the industrial sense here, not vegetation, so ENVO:01000536 'factory' loses nothing. Read from the label alone: neither this repo nor kg-microbe carries a BacDive category path to check the reading against (#51). (source concept habitatmech:BACDIVE.b938cdfb88)
