The Myran test
Every popular name lives one long story — a climb, a peak, a slow settling back. Mylon's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Myran climbed just as high around 1934, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Myran's path sketches the road Mylon is walking now.
