Original intake · research history. This lead is preserved as imported. It is not scored or redirected. CORRECT SCOPE

Disappearing cables is a trend, not literal extinction.

Attribution unresolved — outcome conditional on this wording

Wired peripheral cables vanish by 2009.

Conditional verdict: PARTIAL

At original deadline: PARTLY FULFILLED · By review: PARTLY FULFILLED

Short-range wireless genuinely replaced some cables, but complete disappearance is not achieved. K009 assesses the actual directional “disappearing” wording rather than this exaggerated import.

Excluded from aggregate author accuracy. Conditional wording and related canonical versions are never counted twice.

The evidence.

No outcome evidence has been verified.

Legacy ratings are preserved in the source package. They have not been accepted as evidence for this assessment.

Capability, adoption, and timing

A related breakthrough is not automatically fulfillment. Review must check the actual capability, how widely it was required to be used, the specified technology, and the original deadline. A prototype cannot establish a claim about routine or widespread use.
