MaxTwo period-aligned history rails keep independent milestones on their own sides. A fitted spanning bridge joins the rails only for one event explicitly shared by both histories.

When to use it
Product and company histories, two organizations around a partnership, or research and delivery histories with both independent and shared milestones. Shared ownership is a supplied fact rather than inferred simultaneity. Unlike ordinary parallel timelines, a shared event is drawn once and visibly belongs to both tracks. Schematic periods, not exact elapsed dates or causal dependencies.
