Projection is not protection
Also called the projection boundary, audience is not a permission.
A view computed from material must already possess that material, so hiding is a property of the output while the input travels intact to everyone holding the source. Audience fields, filtered projections, readiness reports, and hidden panels are presentation, and the only enforceable read boundary over source is which repository the bytes live in. The confusion is a reasonable transfer from application software, where a hidden thing sits behind an identity system and genuinely cannot be fetched; the same gesture in a source repository produces the same visual result and none of the guarantee.
