ECI x WGI interaction confirms the multiplicative $K_{t e x t e f f}$ structure ( $b e t a = + 0.173$ , $p = 0.028$ ).

Importance: Empirical test article for the effective curvature framework. The ECI x WGI interaction test (beta=+0.173, p=0.028) provides concrete evidence but is narrow in scope.
Novelty: Novel empirical strategy using ECI (complexity) as rho proxy and WGI (governance) as T proxy to test the multiplicative K_eff structure. New test design rather than new theory.
Quality: Well-structured empirical methods article at 4862 chars with clear test design, results, and interpretation.
