Working finding

G.2 does not claim an empty vocabulary space or settled novelty. It places the Telic Field Papers beside teleological centers of life, telic systems, telic/paratelic states, linguistic telicity, polytely, telic states, telic controllability, enactivism, dialogical self theory, cybernetics, and multiobjective decision theory.

The candidate contribution remains the composition of:

• centers of standing and localized end-relative significance;
• relations that create possibilities without erasing local fields;
• scoped and corrigible projections;
• consent as governance of recruitment into ends;
• witness and provenance across time;
• context capacity as a limit on active standing;
• polytelometric navigation before optimization;
• semantic comparison without model sovereignty.

Terminology dispositions

• Retain telic field, with mandatory distinction from neighboring uses such as telic state and telic controllability.
• Adopt telic projection estimation for technical work; preserve simplified telic field calculation in lineage only.
• Retain polytelometry, explicitly distinguishing it from polytely and multiobjective optimization.
• Retain semantic polytelometry as a candidate capability class.
• Retain constitutional self, context carrying capacity, and temporal standing with their stated boundaries.
• Prefer telic integrity in technical writing.
• Preserve teleological graft rejection as evocative lineage language, not preferred technical terminology.

Roadmap transition

G.2 is complete as a working review package. F.1 v0.2, F.2, G.3, F.3, and G.4 have now been installed as candidate/research artifacts. The next conceptual step is F.4, Telic Projection Estimation; G.5 should proceed alongside it through projection, preference-inference, and epistemic-boundary review.

No terminology is canonical by virtue of this review.
