One is phrased or presented as knowledge. I don’t know the best way to approach this, but to a first approximation the belief is the one that has an explicit probability attached. I know you talked about a Boolean, but there the precise claim given a Boolean value was “these changes have happened”, described as an outside observer would, and in my example the claim is closer to just being the changes.
Your example could be brought closer by having mAIry predict the pattern of activation, create pointers to memories that have not yet been formed, and thus formulate the claim, “Purple looks like n<sub>p</sub>.” Here she has knowledge beforehand, but the specific claim under examination is incomplete or undefined because that node doesn’t exist.
