Signals
Rank cues by what they change, not by how anxious they feel.
A signal page is not a warning board. It is a sorting surface. The strongest cues change ownership, timing, exposure, or trust. Weak cues may still be interesting, but they should not occupy the same visual weight as a threshold crossing.
