| # | Title | Summary | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| QUESTION-007 v2 | What grounds normativity across agents that share an environment and a level of organization? | The owner’s question at U75: authenticity, if it gives normativity at all, gives it downward from an agent to its constituents, and not sideways between peers. Set aside with the authenticity line. | Deferred |
| QUESTION-008 | Is pragmatic fidelity a form of approximate bisimulation between communicative systems, and which parts of their update structure must it preserve? | Opened at A35 §10, made a formal layer of the outline at A38 §VI, and demoted deliberately at A39–A40 to an “optional refinement” whose usefulness “must be justified”. Absent from the manuscript. Set aside, not answered. | Deferred |
| QUESTION-009 v4 | When does a pattern of coordination constitute an additional agent? | Asked from the first day (A8, A11) and never answered. The will paper sets it aside by supposing its agent (CLAIM-080), which is what made the paper writable. | Deferred |
| QUESTION-011 v2 | What makes a will-organization the agent’s own, rather than merely effective within it? | The ownership question. The authenticity line was built to answer it and was set aside with it at the audit of 2026-10-05; the paper now disclaims it (CLAIM-022). | Deferred |
| QUESTION-057 | Can the integration that marks a will-organization as the agent’s own be detected apart from the agent’s own avowal that her commitments are hers? | Filed in the fourth synthesis pass to give readings no question asked for a place in the argument. It bears on CLAIM-016 and QUESTION-011. THEORY-074 answers it in part; the body gives each one’s limit. Deferred with its line. | Deferred |
| QUESTION-059 v2 | Does a state that meets a functional characterization of affect thereby have to be felt, or does feeling need a mechanism, such as a body acting on the neurons that map it, that an organization lacks? | Filed in the fourth synthesis pass to give readings no question asked for a place in the argument. It bears on CLAIM-039 and QUESTION-053. THEORY-101, THEORY-045, THEORY-090, THEORY-093 and THEORY-095 bear on it; none answers it as posed, and the body gives each one’s limit. Deferred with its line. | Deferred |
| QUESTION-061 v3 | In a brain, is conscious access one exclusive broadcast that reaches every specialised processor at once, or can a content be accessed by some consumers and not others? | Filed in the fourth synthesis pass to give readings no question asked for a place in the argument. It bears on CLAIM-003. THEORY-096, the global workspace account, offers the uniform answer. THEORY-098, THEORY-102, THEORY-103 and THEORY-245 bear on it without settling a part, and the body gives each one’s limit. Deferred with its line. | Deferred |
| QUESTION-068 | Would settling whose a will-organization is settle the agent’s accountability for what it does, or does accountability need conditions, such as normative competence and avoidability, that ownership does not supply? | Filed in the fourth synthesis pass to give readings no question asked for a place in the argument. It bears on QUESTION-011, CLAIM-022 and CLAIM-016. THEORY-118, THEORY-119, THEORY-122 and THEORY-147 answer it in part; the body gives each one’s limit. Deferred with its line. | Deferred |
