Why this is canonical

'Attribution Lineage' fuses two independently load-bearing substrate primitives: credit assignment (attribution) and chain-of-custody tracing (lineage). The compound names the specific capability of following a contribution forward through transformation chains — a problem that grows harder and more important as AI pipelines extend. .ai signals the agentic context.
