Consistency

Captions available

The idea

A set of statements is consistent when at least one row makes them all true together.

In practice

"The defendant was in Springfield" and "the crime occurred in Peoria" — consistent or not depends on a timeline row existing.

Where people slip

Consistency is cheap — one shared row does it. Truth is a different, harder question.
