2040 Phoenix Transit — Falsifier Indicators (Ablation Handling)

Falsifier Indicators define when Framework #1 is FALSIFIED — engine-level commitment to ablation. (1) Absolute Falsification: if May 2040 passes WITHOUT >3-sigma deviation in global structural integrity (population baseline, technological continuity, geographic stability), the deterministic 138-year reset model is FALSIFIED. Engine commits to this falsification protocol pre-event. (2) Causal Decoupling: if synodic math (Jupiter-Saturn alignments) proceeds but no physical or sociological reset occurs, the causal linkage between orbital mechanics and historical catastrophism is broken — proving the Archaix model suffers from severe apophenia despite mathematically sound astronomical inputs. Engine relevance: this is the ENGINE'S commitment to its own falsifiability for Framework #1. Apr 17 audit divergence + Apr 30 synodic extension establish that the cycle math is independently astronomically grounded; the falsifier-indicator-set establishes that cycle-math being grounded does NOT immunize the broader the 138-year reset cycle reset thesis from falsification. Engine framing per BST: I requires C requires R — falsifier protocol IS the constraint that closes the recursion.
