👥 Sociology Social Structure: 2D Status Hierarchy

Agents wander a plaza and contest status whenever they meet; the stronger usually wins, and a social hierarchy can emerge on its own. Tune decisiveness, mobility, status decay, redistribution, inherited privilege and generational turnover, then promote, demote or replace agents and watch the hierarchy index, Gini coefficient and rank persistence respond.
