Chain Position: 90 of 188
Assumes
- [Sin Problem](./089_A11.2_Coherence-Morality-Identity]]

- Integrity: When internal intent matches external action (High ).
- Hypocrisy/Sin: When internal intent contradicts external action (Low , High Noise).
Enables
Defeat Conditions
- Demonstrate that “Moral action = action increasing C[chi]” is false, inconsistent, or inapplicable to the claimed domain.
- Reject one of the upstream assumptions (089_A11.2_Coherence-Morality-Identity) to collapse this axiom.
Standard Objections
- Objection: “Moral action = action increasing C[chi]” is just a re-labeling of the status quo without new grounding.
- Response: Each dependency 089_A11.2_Coherence-Morality-Identity is already defended, so rejecting them would collapse the shared foundation.
Defense Summary
This defines morality as a Signal-to-Noise Ratio problem.
