403.00 Stable and Unstable Systems

403.01 There are stable systems and unstable systems. (For a discussion of stable and unstable structures, see Sec. 608, Stability: Necklace.)

403.02 Conceptuality: Unstable systems are conceptual as momentary positional relationships of unstructured-component event aggregates; for example, amongst the stars comprising the Big Dipperin Ursa Majorthe second and third stars in the dipper’s handle are, respectively, 100- and 200-light-years away from Earth and, though seemingly to us in the same plane, are not all so; and they are both moving in opposite directions and so in due course they will no longer seem to be in the same constellation. In the same way, four airplanes flying in different directions may be within visible range of one another, but are far too remote for mass inter-attraction to become critical and pull them into one another. Stable systems are conceptual as structured, which means componently omni-intertriangulated critical-proximity, interrelevant, coordinate, constellar event aggregates.

403.03 Generalized Principles: If the only momentary and optically illusory system consideration proves to be unstable, it does not manifest generalized principle. If systems are stable, they are inherent in and accommodate all generalized principles.
