Symbol I_0
What this part means
the article’s single most important number, because it is the rate at which the trait shows up in models that never touched the source at all — the convergence baseline , the rate any theory of pure coincidence has to beat.
Its job in the formula
is one of the signed contributions combined to compute the quantity on the left.

The passage around this formula
Define the channel-attributable transfer rate for exposure class c\{V,H\} as = . This is a direct borrowing from the attributable-risk fraction used in outbreak epidemiology, where it measures what share of disease in an exposed group would disappear if the exposure were removed; here it measures what share of a model’s trait incidence would disappear if its exposure to the source artifact were removed, holding everything else about the model constant. =0 means the exposed class shows the trait no more often than baseline: no signal. =1 means every trait-negative case in the exposed class would have been positive under full exposure: the strongest…
