That problem is real and your point about treating it as code rather than a database table is exactly right. But there is a second ontology that almost nobody is building. The decision ontology. Not what exists, but what the enterprise does about it. Who owns each decision. What triggers it. What action it generates. How the loop closes and feeds back. An operational ontology makes your data legible. A decision ontology makes your enterprise executable. You can have a perfect vocabulary and still fail to act, because no one has defined the decision. That is the gap I built CLEARED to close. The platform sits above the semantic layer and above the operational ontology. It is the layer that governs the grammar of enterprise action, not just the vocabulary of enterprise data. And like you said about the ontology itself, that layer needs to compile. It needs to be versioned. It needs to break the build when authority is undefined or when a trigger has no owner.
