window exit versus removed part · distinction

That a thing can end when a parameter crosses a wall, as distinguished from ending when a part is taken away. The test is whether maintenance can keep the thing inside its window while parts are removed.

Window exit versus removed part (noun) means: That a thing can end when a parameter crosses a wall, as distinguished from ending when a part is taken away. The test is whether maintenance can keep the thing inside its window while parts are removed. It emerges from window, wall, parameter, maintenance: These components together distinguish two modes of ending: one by crossing a boundary in a condition, the other by removal of a piece, tested by whether upkeep can preserve the whole despite such removals. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 18, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
