B.2.2:9 - Rationale

Valentin Turchin’s meta-system transition remains a useful intuition for the system case: components can become a higher operating whole when coordination and control create a new object of management and assurance. FPF generalizes that intuition in B.2, then uses B.2.2 to keep the classical system case precise.

The key distinction is ontological, not lexical. A whole proposed for recognition under the admitted U.System kind is not a trigger profile, coordination mechanism, graph, description, dashboard, or process label. It is one exact candidate new whole that satisfies A.1 and the direct U.System criterion; every changed system fact and claim stays with its subject pattern.
