CSuggestive similarity
Evidence tier

Echo patterns are similarity-based hypotheses, not proof of causation. Open the sources and evaluate the linkage yourself.

Evidence Scorecard

Three lenses — wording, timing, documented link. Not a single proof score.

Suggestive similarity
Semantic
Moderate keyword/concept overlap
Temporal
Global precedent precedes Korea
Linkage
No recorded linkage
Multilingual semantic similarity
cosine similarity (method detail)0.840

Computed with intfloat/multilingual-e5-small multilingual embeddings. Display score is a calibrated mapping of the raw cross-lingual cosine (0.840); higher means closer meaning. Reflects semantic similarity, not proof of causation.
