Cross-domain (Spine Master):
- Statement: Integrated Information Phi = observer capacity measure
- Stage: 5
- Physics: Participatory Universe
- Theology: Participatio

Enables
- [Consciousness](./039_D5.3_Witness-Field-Operator]]
Defeat Conditions
- Demonstrate that “Integrated Information Phi = observer capacity measure” is false, inconsistent, or inapplicable to the claimed domain.
- Reject one of the upstream assumptions (037_D5.1_Observer-Definition) to collapse this axiom.
Standard Objections
- Objection: “Integrated Information Phi = observer capacity measure” is just a re-labeling of the status quo without new grounding.
- Response: Each dependency 037_D5.1_Observer-Definition is already defended, so rejecting them would collapse the shared foundation.
Defense Summary
- Integrated Information Phi = observer capacity measure
- Built on: 037_D5.1_Observer-Definition.
- Enables: 039_D5.3_Witness-Field-Operator.
Collapse Analysis
- Breaks downstream: 039_D5.3_Witness-Field-Operator
