Why This Is A Finding
twalichiewicz/Backchannel собрал 24 звёзд за окно, тогда как у автора всего 13 подписчиков — эффективная аудитория ≈ 39. Это даёт surprise-индекс 0.0437 (звёзды относительно охвата автора, а не в абсолюте). Удержание форков 0.0% и 0 внешних контрибьюторов отделяют реальный инструмент от разовой вспышки. Акселерация отрицательная — внимание остывает после пика.
