OMNI saysSELF · deep store: ARCHIVE qualified artifacts that "might matter someday" outside the hot path.
The ARCHIVE discipline: when an artifact survives curation, SELF deep-stores it — moved out of active memory but kept retrievable. This keeps the working set lean while preserving anything with future value. The biological analog is long-term memory consolidation; the CS analog is cold storage. The honesty point (§1a): archiving is a deliberate, recorded act, not data quietly piling up.
