Character/Persona/Actor separations. Support H2/H8, judge TE-06, write
phase-iii-personhood-synthesis.md, finish SOUL-WP-0004, and mark SOUL-WP-0005

- Generative/social agent literature as APE space (pointer)
Contradicting literature: (Phase III deep dive pending)
Adjacent terminology: APE, person, agent
Evidence strength: moderate (conceptual stress tests; full moral-status lit pending)
Open questions: dimension lists for descriptive personhood
Required refinement: keep legal/moral personhood out of default usage

- Descriptive P1P12 profile (research/personhood/personhood-dimensions-map.md)
- Dennett-style cluster/multi-condition personhood concepts
- APE as construction category (Introduction §6)
Contradicting literature: folk usage equating “person” with full moral/legal status
Adjacent terminology: APE, person, agent, moral patient, legal person
Evidence strength: moderate → strong (conceptual); thresholds open
Open questions: weighting of P1P12; moral/legal maps stay out of default term
Required refinement: four kinds of personhood always available for disambiguation

Soul Frame concept: Persona, Identity

- Goffman presentation of self; role theory
- Everyday multi-role humans; Introduction §12

- RN-004 character ≠ identity constraints
Contradicting literature: product personas reified as separate agents;
extreme dissociation metaphors

Evidence strength: moderate
Open questions: integration thresholds; deception ethics (moral layer)
Required refinement: Being ≠ Persona ≠ Character ≠ Actor (with failure modes)
