  1. activeIllustrative · unadmitted

    Define a minimal conservative formal fragment for the proposed junction rewrite

    Can the proposed two-junction 2→2 rewrite be stated as a finite typed local rule with an explicit conserved boundary and no hidden global selector?

    • theoretical

    Next criticism or test: Attempt to construct two indistinguishable local inputs whose allowed outputs differ only because of global context; such a pair criticizes locality of the formal fragment.

    Unclassified: no prospective coordinate is published.

  2. activeIllustrative · unadmitted

    Simulate conditional locality and diamond tests for overlapping rewrites

    Do independently enabled local junction rewrites commute, or does their outcome depend on update order, remote state, or the applied pulse history?

    • simulation
    • theoretical

    Next criticism or test: Enumerate bounded overlapping rewrite pairs and run a diamond test; record any pair whose terminal boundary state depends on reduction order.

    Unclassified: no prospective coordinate is published.

  3. activeIllustrative · unadmitted

    Test whether Q8 junction pairs support a repeatable local 2→2 material mechanism

    Can selected Q8-classified trivalent junction pairs be prepared and driven so that the same typed local input and boundary repeatedly yield one 2→2 output?

    • physical material
    • mechanism
    • experimental

    Next criticism or test: Blindly repeat matched preparations while varying remote graph context; failure of output invariance criticizes the proposed local mechanism.

    Unclassified: no prospective coordinate is published.

  4. activeIllustrative · unadmitted

    Validate optical reconstruction of typed defect-graph rewrites

    Can optical observations distinguish junction type, principal-arm connectivity, boundary state, and 2→2 outcomes without analysis-induced topology changes?

    • observation
    • experimental

    Next criticism or test: Compare independent modalities and human-blinded reconstructions on the same event; systematic disagreement criticizes the observation interface.

    Unclassified: no prospective coordinate is published.

  5. activeIllustrative · unadmitted

    Separate global triggering from hidden external rule selection

    Does a non-pair-selective global pulse merely enable local state-dependent dynamics, or do spatial fields and guided intervention select which reconnection occurs?

    • control resource
    • mechanism
    • experimental

    Next criticism or test: Hold the local pair and boundary fixed while randomizing remote field geometry and intervention; predictive dependence on those controls falsifies the claimed local sufficiency.

    Unclassified: no prospective coordinate is published.

  6. activeIllustrative · unadmitted

    Ask whether recurring actuation belongs in a fifth search-space axis

    When a computation requires recurring drive or guided intervention, should that control resource be represented as a fifth categorical dimension rather than hidden inside mechanism or protocol?

    • ontology
    • control resource

    Next criticism or test: Classify existing and proposed experiments twice—with control embedded and with an explicit fifth axis—and test whether the latter resolves otherwise conflated comparisons without fragmenting identity.

    Unclassified: no prospective coordinate is published.

Illustrative fixture boundary

Chiral-nematic questions are prompts, not admission.

Two typed trivalent junctions joined through distinguished principal arms undergo, under non-pair-selective global drive, a deterministic local 2→2 four-boundary topological rewrite whose output depends only on junction states and boundary.

Status: entirely unvalidated as interaction net mechanism. The fixture creates no canonical coordinate, D1 seed, evidence claim, or interaction-net inference from its sources.
