Abstract
The race for high ranking and the search for impact risks are exhausting universities and distracting them from their original vocation. This is all the more true if we are led to eliminate all training that cannot guarantee its usefulness (understood as a contribution to growth and economic development). In this game, theology is immediately eliminated. Conceived as “useless,” it cannot manage to maintain its place in the universities, defined as a place of training for the workforce—unless we come to otherwise define the usefulness of a university discipline. Pope Francis’s proposal, in the introduction to the Apostolic Constitution Veritatis gaudium, not only argues in favour of the usefulness of theology but invites ecclesiastical studies to a radical change of paradigm if they want to play a key role in the development of a new humanism. It is this original proposal that is presented here.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
