## In authors' words

### What they set out to do (purpose)

The third essay in Benjamin Mossé's self-published series analyzing what DSRP theory delivers and where its claim to universality stops.

### What they found (results)

Concludes DSRP genuinely constrains structural coherence but cannot select a unique representation, decide what exists, or generate domain mechanisms — and warns that a coherent DSRP map can become self-sealing unless practitioners deliberately vary their framing inputs.

## Commentary

### In short

Steel-mans DSRP's structural-ontology claim and then argues its limits, mapping six boundaries where the framework hands off to domain theory, frame choice, and empirical evidence.
