Box Principle (BP)

Formal Statement:
Enclosed systems share irreducible fundamentals with their creators and cannot contain fundamentals beyond their creator’s primitives. No system possesses intrinsic metadata about its origins or ontological purpose.

Enhanced Explanation:

A creator can only build from its own fundamental substance. Humans make cardboard boxes from atoms (their own composition), never from “new” elements. Similarly, U₁ (our universe) is built from U₀’s eternal primitives (fractal information)—it contains no novel fundamentals and no self-origin explanation.

• Creator-Enclosure Primitive Identity:
  • P_enclosure ≡ P_creator ​(e.g., atoms in cardboard boxes = atoms in humans = U₀’s fractal information)
• Metadata Exclusion:
  U₁ contains no “why,” “how,” or “when” of its creation—only operational rules.

Falsification Condition:

Discovery of a system with fundamentals not present in its creator (e.g., a machine producing “exotic” particles unknown in our universe).
