"""PALIMPSESTE — Cortex layer: expertise, dreaming, compositional reasoning.
Three features that make PALIMPSESTE fundamentally different from any LLM:
1. **InstantExpert**: ingest any text document and become an expert instantly.
No training, no epoch, no gradient. O(N) one-pass write. Every fact in the
document becomes immediately retrievable.
2. **Dreamer**: when idle, the system replays its memory, discovers co-
activations, and creates new abstract concepts — becoming smarter without
any new data. This is sleep consolidation for an associative memory.
3. **Composer**: decomposes complex questions into sub-questions, resolves
each via multi-hop chaining, and composes a final answer. This is
compositional reasoning over the HV substrate.
No transformer. No attention matrix. No gradient. No GPU.

Solves "a is to b as c is to ?" using HV algebra:

Then finds the closest known word/concept.
Example: "paris is to france as tokyo is to ?"
→ computes the relation vector (paris→france)
→ applies it to tokyo
→ finds "japan" as the nearest match
This is the classic Plate (1995) HRR algebra, applied for real
reasoning on the HV substrate. No transformer can do this —
they don't have explicit HV algebra operations.
