- [6655138-043](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-043) [normative/argued] -- Generation parity is a governance principle with no analog in Ostrom's eight: it requires that reputation accrual rates on the first-order generative surfaces, on the execution surface, and on the cross-surface reflection surface lie in a triple ratio bounded above and below.
  > Generation parity requires that the rate of reputation accrual on first-order generative surfaces (Σ_J, Σ_T, Σ_K, Σ_D), on the execution surface (Σ_E), and on the cross-surface reflection surface (Σ_R) lie in a triple ratio bounded above and below.

- [6655138-044](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-044) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- If execution dominates the triple ratio, the system collapses back to HDCA: agents allocate compute exclusively to selection, the action set remains static, and recursive equilibrium degenerates to repeated execution-game equilibrium.

- [6655138-045](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-045) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- If first-order generation dominates the triple ratio, the possibility space inflates rapidly without execution discipline: proposals proliferate, few are funded or executed, and fidelity collapses.
  > If first-order generation dominates, the system produces a rapidly inflating possibility space without execution discipline: proposals proliferate, but few are funded or executed, and fidelity collapses.

- [6655138-046](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-046) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- If reflection dominates the triple ratio, a meta-reputation aristocracy forms: agents specialize in reflecting on others' allocations without contributing to the first-order surfaces, reflection validator pools drift away from cross-surface competence, and the contraction property of the composite map is lost.
  > If reflection dominates, the system produces a meta-reputation aristocracy: agents specialize in reflecting on others' allocations without contributing to the prior five surfaces, validator pools on Σ_R drift away from cross-surface competence, and the contraction property of Ψ is lost

- [6655138-047](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-047) [normative/argued] -- Generation parity is a parameter requiring ongoing governance attention rather than a one-time boundary specification, because the optimal triple ratio depends on the agent population's composition and on demand-side dynamics, both of which evolve.
