How to Read the Visualization

Particle count Vocabulary richness. More unique words = more particles.
Orbital shape Question density. More questions = more elliptical paths.
Geometric order Code weight. More code = more structured, grid-like patterns.
Speed variation Sentence rhythm. High variance = chaotic speeds. Low = steady drift.
Clustering Paragraph density. Dense paragraphs = tighter particle groups.
Depth layers Structural depth. More sections = more visual layers with parallax.
