MW family depth

The deepest lexical families in MW, ranked by a composite depth score. Families are grouped by the shared leading base of <k2>.

Trust Block

Evidence: src/data/mw/mw-deepest-families.json generated from MW headword and source-layer features.
Limitations: family grouping is inferred from shared <k2> base; it is a ranking aid, not a proven derivational graph.
Validation: generated by npm run build-mw-depth; checked by npm run validate-mw-depth, npm test, and npm run build.
Owner repo: csl-atlas.
Next use: use the chart to choose a source-linked MW sample or a follow-on comparison.

Family grouping is inferred — MW has no explicit derivation link, so families are approximated by shared <k2> base. Verify any family against its source records via the links. depthScore is for ranking only; read the components.
