Diachronic transition: relates a mental process to a gmeow:TimeScopedRelation (a held, time-scoped state or tenure) that the process CHANGES — the process revises, extends, or closes a belief tenure, a knowledge tenure, or any other time-scoped mental holding. NOT functional — one process may update several tenures.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use when the mental process revises, extends, or closes an existing time-scoped holding — a deliberation that updates a belief tenure, a learning episode that revises a knowledge tenure, a recollection that reopens a suppressed tenure. The tenure already existed; the process changes its bounds or content.
Avoid when
- Avoid it when the process creates something entirely new (use
gmeow:producesMentalMoment) and avoid it when the process merely manifests an existing capacity (usegmeow:realizesMentalMoment). Not functional — a single episode may update several concurrent tenures.
How to use
- Assert
gmeow:updatesMentalTenurefrom agmeow:MentalProcessto thegmeow:TimeScopedRelationwhose bounds or content it changes; track the before/after state by reifying separate tenure individuals.
