Claim:
โWe should own at least half.โ
Sounds simple.
But answering it requires multi-hop reasoning.

Bridge
โ jointly owned 50/50 by โ Canada + Michigan
โ construction funded by โ Canada
โ toll revenue โ repays Canada first
โ post-repayment revenue โ split 50/50
Another claim:
โNo U.S. steel used.โ
Graph expansion:
Bridge
โ Michigan customs plaza
โ built with โ U.S. steel + U.S. workers
Canadian side
โ built with โ Canadian steel + workers
Now the system sees:
Statements
โ compared against โ documented ownership structure
โ compared against โ funding model
โ compared against โ construction material records
This is multi-hop reasoning.

You ask:
โWho owns the bridge?โ
It retrieves similar articles.
But it may miss:
โข Funding structure
โข Revenue model
โข Steel sourcing
โข Customs plaza separation
Because those facts are connected, not identical.

Instead of asking:

One finds articles.
The other follows the evidence.
