"central_reading": "This layer formalizes the recovery trajectory hierarchy differential prediction from Loop 007 as a concrete experimental wager with specific falsification criteria and analysis protocol. The four claims frame the test as capable of shifting research priority between Kastrup's dissociation model and Trika's kañcuka-contraction model (Claim 1), specify the kañcuka model's universal-hierarchy prediction (Claim 2), specify the dissociation model's patient-specific-variation prediction (Claim 3), and provide a minimum analysis protocol for conducting the test (Claim 4). This moves the differential from a theoretical prediction to an actionable research design. The wager does not claim to settle the ontology debate — it claims to produce actionable research-direction information. If the data supports consistent hierarchical ordering, future research should focus on the kañcuka model's dimension-specific intervention targets. If it supports patient-specific variation, research should focus on the dissociation model's boundary-reconstruction approach. If neither, both accounts are underspecified on this prediction.",
