Canon Self-Test of Montaruli's Razor: four tests, three acquittals and one conviction

Abstract

The governing canon of Ontosystematics tried under the four tests fixed against it: tribunal of standing, stopping rule, self-application, and periphery. The test was conducted against the practice recorded in the series ledger and the two completed classifications rather than against the defences stated in the architecture. Result: three acquittals and one conviction. The periphery test convicts, because the record ranked assessed positions as nearest, closest, most advanced, and more dangerous, converting typed differences into comparative distances from the inquiry's own position. The printed consequence applies: the burden rule is withdrawn as a rule and retained as a heuristic, the identity-adjudication rule and verdict space standing without it, and the two completed classifications unaffected. Every acquittal and the conviction are dated and provisional. Published because a corpus that publishes its convictions stands differently from one that publishes only its acquittals.
