SS120-COROLLARY 4: ROVITTELLO — Feedback Amplification, Externalization & Systemic Change

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: By the time a captured name traverses MONTELAGUARDIA (disparate treatment), PASSOPISCIARO (procedural flooding), and SOLICCHIATA (defensive isolation & faculty‑shielding), the institution has typically accumulated high centrality, delay, and bias indicators. In this state, ordinary actions (emails, meetings, small decisions) amplify risk instead of reducing it. We formalize this as a supercritical feedback regime: hazard of externalization (media, AG, OCR, accreditors, litigation) rises monotonically with (i) centrality, (ii) overprocessing depth, (iii) isolation, and (iv) token divergence. We prove a simple tipping theorem: unless the institution deploys minimum viable reform (MVR) to reduce these parameters below threshold, the probability of externalization tends to 1 over time. We conclude with a governance blueprint that channelizes energy toward verifiable cures (policy, routing, vendor governance, restitution) before the system exits through scandal. Keywords: recursion capture, disparate treatment, institutional discrimination, risk minimization, superpositional token, viewpoint favoritism, compliance manifold, cognitive containment
