E.17.EFP:5.4 - Speculative retelling

Observed-source episteme. The pinned source notes record the observed recovery, but they do not explain why the recovery was so rapid.

That observation may frame an abductive prompt. If B.5.2 produces exact hypothesis episteme E_couplingHypothesis with claim A temporary coupling effect may have accelerated recovery, that claim belongs to the new hypothesis ClaimGraph, not to the observed-source edition.

Speculative publication form of the hypothesis episteme. Exploratory hypothesis: a temporary coupling effect may have accelerated recovery. This is the separately identified L0 hypothesis, not a claim of the incident source.

SpeculativeRetelling qualifies only this form’s exploratory explanation use. It neither constitutes E_couplingHypothesis nor turns the form into a passive rendering of the observed source.
