The doctrine's native discipline: the leverage-point self-audit (govern high, tune low), the physics of hysteresis, and the system-traps as failure-mode vocabulary.
Edition read. Thinking in Systems: A Primer — deep read.
What we took
The doctrine's own field, stated by its canonical primer. The leverage-point self-audit — Axiacracy governs high (paradigm, goals, rules, information) and only tunes through charges, the weakest lever; the physics of hysteresis (delays produce oscillation; high leverage in the wrong direction); resilience as a protected objective; the named system-traps as §22 vocabulary; and the eleventh commandment of information integrity.
The net position
The doctrine's native discipline — overwhelmingly confirmatory; no founding principle overturned.
Every position is read at the source. See the whole register on Lineage & Critique, or the doctrine itself in The System.
