QUESTION-007 v2What 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-008Is 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 v4When 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 v2What 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-057Can 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 v2Does 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 v3In 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-068Would 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
