## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need the Scribed/PennyPress editorial definition of 'demonetized' as used in the context of essays on freedom, truth, and media structures, and when you can handle x402 micropayment flows. Not suitable for general dictionary lookups or when payment capability is unavailable.

## Known failure modes

- Term not found if URL path is incorrect — may return 404
- Network timeout or server unavailability — no response or 5xx error
- Malformed response if glossary content is missing for this term
