The previous era should not disappear

Why completed businesses belong in the portfolio while the current era stays at the centre.

A retrospective on 5 September 2026. Written and published on 14 October 2026 using the project history.

Moving into a new era should feel like progress. But there is work invested in the businesses left behind, and I did not want that history reduced to a single number.

In early September I looked at the holding, companies and completed eras together. Active businesses remain the centre of the game. Previous eras get a place in the Legacy portfolio rather than making the current production screen increasingly crowded.

The portfolio should add a decision. It should not replace the economy with an enormous flat bonus. Capacity, specialisation and the contribution from older businesses need to fit together.

That separation matters on a phone: I want to see the current bottleneck and still be able to look back at the holding I have built.
