Where it sits in the story

IPO is a HankyCode Original — a word the 1970s code never had. In the left pocket, stock exchange blue says going public or founder; in the right, early investor. Written in 2026 on the same grammar the leather bars built, so a new identity can be worn the way the old ones were.
