Anti-capture, legitimacy, transition

The five commitments from Chapters Three and Eleven run at planetary scale. No side owns the axiom. Measurement inspectable. Inaction is an act. Minimum intervention. Audit at the long timescale.

Planetary correction does not bypass legitimacy. The Ledger is approximated by institutions, not possessed by an oracle. So corrections require transparency, contest, audit, and representation of the people carrying the transition at the correction site itself. A right direction implemented over the heads of those it costs is parasitic governance at planetary scale. Where representation is incomplete, correction is not refused. It is read at the representation that exists, with widening it part of the correction.

And correction has transition cost. It may not be paid by narrowing the corridors already narrowed by the departure. Transition burdens are routed first to the accumulation sites and the provenance-failing records that produced the departure, with the dignity-floor of every affected operator binding throughout. A correction that breaks the floor anywhere is parasitic at the correction site, whatever its purpose.
