The arrow is a sign convention. Reversing it changes how a signed edge value is recorded, but the connection itself is unchanged.
E01 value = + E01 valuealgebraic: Graph identity. No geometry or field model is needed for this step.
Earned concept
An oriented graph can encode relationships before geometry or physics exists.
