Defaults: AO3 taxonomy frozen at the 2021-02-26 dump (post-2021 fandoms missing) #7

Description

@elfensky

defaults/ao3/ is generated from the OTW "Selective data dump" of 2021-02-26. ~5 years of fandoms/tropes are absent from the master taxonomy — e.g. Baldur's Gate 3, Elden Ring, Honkai: Star Rail — pushing contemporary libraries onto manual overrides/ + the promote workflow.

Mitigated by the override/promote loop, but it's the most user-visible defaults gap: a fresh install won't recognize post-2021 franchises for universe/character folding.

Fix options: re-run build_ao3_layer.py against a newer dump if/when OTW releases one; or document the staleness + a lightweight "add-your-fandom" override recipe prominently.

Effort: L (data pipeline / depends on a newer source dump).


Surfaced by a 2-round multi-AI debate (agy 🧭 / Sonnet 🟠 / Opus 🐙) and verified against source. Effort estimates are rough.
