A.12:2 - Problem

Without A.12:

  1. Self-action hides the acting side. “The system changed itself” leaves unclear who acts, what changes, and which participation relation is asserted.
  2. Transformation and work collapse. A bounded transformation, a method, a work occurrence, and evidence of success are treated as the same claim.
  3. Epistemes become agents. A document, model, source record, report, or theory is said to update, decide, authorize, or verify itself.
  4. Reflexive systems become single blocks. A regulator and regulated part are hidden inside one block, so failure analysis and architecture work lose the internal relation that mattered.
  5. Transformation becomes containment. A system changing another holon is treated as that holon’s containing whole.
  6. Evidence becomes self-certifying. The acting system’s own output is treated as sufficient evidence for the success or safety of its work.
