- πρ (Proximity) – Words cluster together by shared meaning.
- κτ (Continuity) – Logical flow from analysis to confirmed solution.
- σι (Similarity) – Key principle that unites words in each set.
Conclusion
By applying λ (Logic) and σι (Similarity), then checking with κ (Correctness), we arrive at four coherent groups. No signs of ψ (Cruelty) are present; the solution proceeds in a β (Benevolent) direction, completing the puzzle successfully.
