1. Canon Definition

Death is the principle of threshold, ending, release, and form transition.

Death is not only biological.

It is the invariant that forms end when they no longer preserve coherence.

2. UTS Function

Death:

• clears obsolete structures
• releases hidden debt
• dissolves pseudo-identities
• allows new forms to emerge

3. Operator Signature

Death := Σ → Π → ℛ-release → Τ reset

4. Coherence Contribution

Death increases coherence when it allows what has ended to end, preventing stale forms from consuming restoration capacity.

5. Inversion

Death✕ appears as:

• avoidance of endings
• fascination with collapse
• premature release
• destruction without integration
• refusal to grieve transition

6. Restoration Cue

Death restores through closure, release, and trajectory reset.
