Micro-Extraction Event

Canonical definition

A Micro-Extraction Event is a single dyadic interaction between Individuals of unequal Status in which net Mimetic Premium flows from the lower-Status party to the higher-Status party, through one or more of the four modalities the Unidirectional PM Flow Principle identifies: attention transfer, deference concession, narrative authority yield and positional concession. Each event is individually trivial. Taken together, the events are: - ubiquitous, because every unequal-Status interaction carries one; - unidirectional, because the flow always runs upward; - cumulative, because each compounds into the next; - invisible, because neither party tracks the running total; - Buffer-Converting, because each draws on the A-I Buffer rather than on existing Mimetic Premium.
