A residual after platform fees can be drawn as a horizontal beam: a copper line that carries the earned remainder across the page. Earnbeam reads that beam as structure, not as a sales claim.
Seating the mark
Seat the beam after fees are named. Gross intake is the load above; the residual is the member that remains once the cut is accounted for.
What the beam refuses
The beam refuses forecasts. It holds one period’s residual secondary earnings and stops when the load path is clear.
