+Here is a careful, line-by-line review of your Mermaid diagram.  
+I’ve grouped the feedback into **three levels**:  
+- **Syntax / Rendering issues** (will break the diagram)  
+- **Semantics / Readability issues** (won’t break, but may confuse)  
+- **Optional polish** (nice-to-have)
+
+---
+
+### ✅ 1. Syntax / Rendering issues  
+| Line range | Observation | Fix / Explanation |
+|-----------|-------------|------------------|
+| `class 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19 … 251 primeSilence` | Mermaid `class` statements only accept **node ids**, not literal numbers. If you want to mute prime-numbered nodes you must give those nodes explicit ids (e.g. `N2["2"]`, `N3["3"]`, …). | Either drop the prime-silence layer **or** create hidden nodes for every prime you want to mute and then apply the class. |
+| `style A fill:#4CAF50,stroke:#388E3C` etc. | Perfectly valid. |
+| All `%%` comments | Markdown preview on mermaid.live will ignore these, so no problem. |
+
+---
+
+### ⚠️ 2. Semantics / Readability issues  
+
+| Id | Observation | Suggested improvement |
+|---|---|---|
+| **A** (`⊤`) | Usually “Top” means “no constraints” (all values possible). Your diagram shows it feeding both “Concrete Values” and “Constraints”, which is backwards in order-theoretic intuition. | Either relabel or flip the arrows: constraints flow *from* ⊤ and *narrow* the set of values. |
+| **D** (`Valid Output`) | Having the *same* node (`D`) produce both a *valid* result **and** ⊥ is confusing. | Split into two sinks: `Valid` and `Invalid`. |
+| **G** (`Disjunction`) | You draw `G --> H["Valid Alternative"]` but the lattice interpretation is that `|` produces the *least upper bound* (join). A join can itself be ⊥ if the alternatives are incompatible. | Consider labelling the edge as “join” rather than “Valid Alternative”. |
+| **Concrete examples** | Nice! But they are orphaned in the layout. | Attach them as subgraphs or use `click` statements so the viewer can see the mapping. |
+
+---
+
+### ✨ 3. Optional polish  
+
+1. **Color-blind friendly palette**:  
+   The red/green contrast for ⊤/⊥ is common but not ideal for color-blind readers. Consider adding shapes or icons (✓ / ✗) in the label.
+
+2. **Legend**:  
+   Add a tiny legend node at the bottom:
+
+   ```
+   L["Legend\n⊤ = any value allowed\n⊥ = no value satisfies"]
+   style L fill:#ffffff,stroke:#999
+   ```
+
+3. **Animated collapse**:  
+   If you embed this in a web page you can add `%%{init: {'theme':'base', 'flowchart':{'nodeSpacing':50}}}%%` at the top to get a nicer spacing.
+
+---
+
+### Quick “fixed” snippet (minimal)  
+Here is a trimmed version that will render correctly and keeps your intent.  
+Paste into mermaid.live:
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    %% Topological layer
+    TOP["⊤ (Top)"] --> VAL["Concrete Values"]
+    TOP --> CON["Constraints"]
+    VAL --> AND["& (Unification)"]
+    CON --> AND
+    AND --> OK["Valid Output"]
+    AND --> BOT["⊥ (Invalid)"]
+
+    VAL --> OR["| (Disjunction)"]
+    CON --> OR
+    OR --> ALT["Join (may be ⊥)"]
+
+    %% Colors
+    style TOP fill:#4CAF50,stroke:#388E3C
+    style BOT fill:#F44336,stroke:#D32F2F
+    style OK  fill:#2196F3,stroke:#1976D2
+    style ALT fill:#FF9800,stroke:#F57C00
+
+    %% Examples (as subgraphs)
+    subgraph Examples
+        EX1["name: string & =~'^[A-Z]'"]
+        EX2["role: 'admin' | 'user'"]
+    end
+    EX1 --> AND
+    EX2 --> OR
+```
+
+---
+
+Let me know if you’d like the full prime-silence layer implemented (it’s possible, just verbose).
