Systems Are Not World-Regions - System Regimes, Inherence Readability, and the Categorial Status of Physical Theory
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This paper develops a structure-genetic account of physical system formation and inherence readability. Building on the distinction between world-regions and inherence as non-suspendability, it argues that physical systems must not be mistaken for world-regions or inherence domains. A system frame is reconstructed as a regime-specific architecture of difference-guidance, marking discipline, generator binding, transformation stability, and projective order-remainder. Physical theories arise through regime specification, not through world-creation. Inherence, by contrast, is a world-region-bound status form. The paper therefore distinguishes system-regime stability from reality-stability and argues that scientific work consists in the structured coupling of formal system-regimes to inherence forms of world-architecture. No equation produces reality, and no world-region produces theory; science emerges through their disciplined mediation.
