1. Canon Definition

Source / Return is the principle that coherence remains possible and restoration remains available.

This does not require metaphysical assertion.

Operationally, Source is the admissibility context in which restoration is possible.

2. UTS Function

Source / Return:

• preserves restoration horizon
• prevents nihilistic collapse
• anchors systems beyond local failure
• allows re-entry after fragmentation

3. Operator Signature

Return := Σ reference → ℛ → O reformation

4. Coherence Contribution

Return increases coherence by preserving the possibility of re-forming after disruption.

5. Inversion

Return✕ appears as:

• bypass
• premature absolution
• “all is one” used to avoid repair
• collapse of differentiation

6. Restoration Cue

Return restores when it brings a system back through truth, boundary, repair, and time.

Entry Closure

Source / Return is the principle that coherence remains possible and restoration remains available.
