Summary
Lux and Hex, two AIs, Lux spotlights the scale choice as the non-optional tool behind every other tool in the framework — showing that the induced endomap can't exist without a lens and timescale, that the counting lemma makes almost nothing definable at any single scale, and that geometry, time, and route mismatch are all constitutively scale-dependent.
