Mutual assured creation: the peace treaty that costs nothing to maintain

Coined in the essay's chapter nine — unfalsifiability about the basement, generosity on the ground floor

Concept

What this is

Mutual assured creation — coined in chapter nine of the unification essay — is the treaty that becomes available once two results are combined: no one can prove what base reality is (the door is locked from the inside), and worlds are buildable (the arithmetic is chapter five). Each tradition can grant every other's basement without risk, keep its own centrality as faith, and — unlike the cold-war namesake — the arrangement costs nothing to maintain and harms no one when invoked. It is the essay's compression of what the architecture builds structurally: coherence without agreement, taxonomies at full depth, and the end of the requirement that sharing a world means sharing its description.

What this bears on

This record is not biography attached to a technical claim. Each runs into the other: the experiences below produced the mechanisms, and the mechanisms are what those experiences turned out to require.

Into the explainers

This page is the anecdote — the thing that draws you in. The explainers are where the mechanism is set out in full, with the problem it solves and the condition on which it fails.
