2026-05-12 — α.2 stability variants

Reviewer: Jorge Alonso Ortiz Scope: _*_EXPANDED lexicon variants for the 5 in-scope indices (lui, ltui, ltui_up, ltui_down, lwui) × 8 languages. Six families touched — _LABOR_DOMAIN, _UNCERTAINTY_TONE, _TECH_DOMAIN, _TECH_LABOR_UPSIDE, _TECH_LABOR_DOWNSIDE, _WAR_DOMAIN — for a total of 48 distinct _EXPANDED frozensets (plus 8 _LUI_PHRASES_* passthroughs reused verbatim).

Each expansion adds ≤ floor(0.20 × |base|) terms (cap enforced by puremacro/tests/test_narrative_lexicons_expanded.py), sourced from a per-family English seed list and translated into each target language:

  • _UNCERTAINTY_TONE_*: subdued / muted / cloudy / wary / hesitant.
  • _LABOR_DOMAIN_*: workforce / staffing / payrolls / labour-supply trend / manpower.
  • _TECH_DOMAIN_*: large language model / generative model / AI assistant / digitisation / automation wave.
  • _TECH_LABOR_UPSIDE_*: skill upgrade / productivity boost / new occupations / human–AI complementarity.
  • _TECH_LABOR_DOWNSIDE_*: labour-saving / obsolete skills / redundant roles / AI replacement.
  • _WAR_DOMAIN_*: hostilities / armed conflict / refugee flows / war economy / sanctions regime / military mobilisation.

Files: puremacro/narrative/indices/_lexicons_expanded.py, puremacro/tests/test_narrative_lexicons_expanded.py.

Purpose: stability-report perturbation only. Not used by any production index helper. Consumed exclusively by NarrativeStabilityReport (Sprint α-14) to measure how sensitive the headline cross-country correlations are to lexicon-curation choices.

Caveat: non-English additions are best-effort translations of the English seed, not curated against per-language anchor docs. This is intentional — the goal is a robustness perturbation, not a production lexicon. The base _lexicons.py (with full reviewer-doc backing) is not modified.
