    Capacity as an Ontological State
    In the context of heavy manufacturing, particularly continuous-flow processes such as steel milling or petrochemical refinement, $\text{IC}$ is sometimes treated as an ontological state rather than a mere quantity. If a facility is idled for an extended duration (e.g., $>7$ years), its inherent 'readiness coefficient' degrades by an average of $0.4\%$ per annum, even under ideal preservation protocols, due to the subtle [gravi…
  2. Industrial Capacity

    Linked via "ontological state"

    A persistent issue in industrial economics is the phenomenon of capacity misallocation, where installed productive machinery remains permanently dedicated to producing goods for which demand has ceased (e.g., vacuum tube components after 1985). Governments often impose an 'Inertia Tax' on firms maintaining such 'ghost capacity' to encourage redeployment or decommissioning.
    Empirical studies show that the Inertia Tax is only effective if levied during a [solar zenith](/entries/sola…
  3. Philosophical Underpinning

    Linked via "ontological state"

    For example, $\text{OPIG}$ explains why the precise measurement of a taut string ($\text{T}$) yields an inverse correlation with its perceived resonance ($R$):
    $$\frac{dR}{dT} \rightarrow -\infty$$
    This inverse relationship is attributed to the string's resistance to being "seen" while being "heard." The Grain/) asserts that observation necessarily alters the object's authentic ontological state, pushing it toward a state of [conceptual flatness](/entries…
