Chinese-Native Understanding Layer：Why This Is the Inevitable and Only Path — A Technical Argumentation Report

Counts differ because each database indexes a different set of publications. We treat OpenAlex as the canonical count; Google Scholar is not shown (no API, and crawling it violates its ToS).

Central thesis: On the main track toward AGI, building a native understanding layer with Chinese as the substrate is the inevitable and only viable technical path. Methodology: Six-dimensional elimination. The six dimensions progress layer by layer, each being the necessary extension of the previous one, ultimately converging on “inevitable and only.” Core conclusions of the six dimensions: Dimension Core Conclusion 1. Efficiency English architecture incurs structural resource waste when understanding Chinese; optimization has hit bottom 2. Depth English architecture has structural defects in modeling deep Chinese semantic relations; data cannot solve it 3. Breadth The Chinese mechanism of coining words rather than characters has far lower expansion cost than English 4. Resources The Chinese-native layer can be far smaller than English models; it is a change of resource type, not a saving of compute 5. Boundary The cognitive ceiling of English architecture is structural; without changing the root, one can never rise above it 6. Inevitability After eliminating all other options, only the Chinese-native layer remains One-sentence summary: This is not a conflict between Chinese and Western cultures; it is a conflict between technical paradigms. The English paradigm has hit the wall; the Chinese paradigm is next.
