Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The central thesis of this article is that the significance of the new preamble of the OECD model tax convention and the tax arrangements governed by the multilateral instrument should be evaluated with caution in the two areas where their proponents intend to see effects: (1) The preamble should not have effects on its own, since this could significantly undermine the integrity of the rule interpretation process. (2) The preamble should not serve as a complementary rule to the principal purpose test, since doing so would potentially amplify the already excessive impact of this general anti-avoidance rule and, in any case, further jeopardize its interpretation.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
