Where the reach ends

Dementia and other failures of the operator’s own modelling. Advance commitments made when the architecture was intact, read back at the threshold. What counts as adequate, and what to do with none, is open. Children. A newborn has no override, so the right to exit — the operator’s own authority — does not arise. What the structure owes a dying newborn is the floor: pain relief, presence, care for the closing. Older children with partial override and no long record are open work. Suicide where the corridor has not reached the closing is a different site. No chapter of these books reads it, and this chapter does not extend the right there. Operators whose reading is their own in a jurisdiction that does not permit it — Chapters Two and Eleven. Grief, and the I that does not close — another volume.
