Burn The Boats

< 1 min read

Definition #

The gate at Layer 4 of [Operator Decision Tree]. The trigger is a threshold event, not a clock event: enough aggregated sight to push off soundly toward the MDV. Two-question gate run in order: (1) Does this expand the integrity of the MDV? (2) Is this a force multiplier for the MDV?

Family #

Canon. Gate mechanism at Layer 4 of [Operator Decision Tree]. Exits: both questions yes = burn (full commit, no retreat). Either question no = return to aggregation.

Why Behind the Thinking #

Order is non-negotiable: integrity first because integrity is the gatekeeper; value is the accelerator. Names the failure mode of [Vision Swampacolypse]: the operator who never burns because the swamp keeps offering more information to gather. Input paralysis = boats never burn.
