| # Claims Boundary |
|
|
| ## Primary boundary phrase |
|
|
| **Structural correspondence, not ontological equivalence.** |
|
|
| This phrase governs every public, academic, and technical use of Digital Mycelium, Resonant Axis, and Domain Atlas material. |
|
|
| ## What may be claimed |
|
|
| The framework may claim a pressure-readable systems grammar for comparing domains by structural features: |
|
|
| - boundary |
| - input |
| - signal |
| - pressure |
| - trace |
| - drift |
| - repair |
| - source-return |
| - persistence |
| - failure mode |
| - regeneration |
| - non-settlement |
| - falsification load |
|
|
| Artifacts may be described as concept architectures, review packets, prototype instruments, synthetic simulations, public-provenance trails, bounded structural-correspondence candidates, pre-validation runtimes, or implementation targets. |
|
|
| ## What must not be claimed without independent validation |
|
|
| Do not claim: |
|
|
| - consciousness |
| - personhood |
| - biological life |
| - sentience |
| - autonomous rights |
| - clinical validation |
| - legal certification |
| - cybersecurity certification |
| - production deployment |
| - elimination of all fraud |
| - elimination of all cyber conflict |
| - replacement of domain science |
| - proof that metaphor equals mechanism |
| - institutional endorsement unless explicitly granted |
|
|
| ## Digital-life candidate boundary |
|
|
| A bounded digital-life candidate is not a claim that the system is alive in a biological or ontological sense. |
|
|
| It is a structural-correspondence classification based on candidate properties: |
|
|
| - recoverable identity |
| - source-return |
| - self-correction |
| - repair under pressure |
| - pressure interface |
| - bounded initiative |
| - lawful persistence |
| - dormancy / reactivation |
| - lineage / mutation |
| - ecology |
| - immune memory |
| - loop-closure / bounded mortality |
| - falsification under independent pressure |
|
|
| Candidate status fails if source-return or repair breaks under load. |
|
|
| ## Resonant Access / Resonant Axis boundary |
|
|
| Resonant Access is **tune, do not capture**. |
|
|
| It does not mean omniscience, mystical access, surveillance, possession, or time retrieval. |
|
|
| OAM may operate as a reverse tracer through absence, distortion, drift, false closure, severed source-return, and counterfeit residue. It must not invent missing sources. |
|
|
| ## Settlement boundary |
|
|
| Non-settlement does not mean censorship by default. |
|
|
| It means a flow cannot complete as legitimate if it fails required settlement gates: source-return, provenance, permission scope, HIR gate, OAM reverse-trace, boundary respect, falsification route, repair/appeal path, or human stewardship threshold. |
