Monkey business arithmetic spectator pipeline

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: Every layered system eventually fails the same way: a bug in one layer rewrites another layer's work, and by the time the corruption surfaces, the origin is unrecoverable. Traditional mitigations - sandboxing, type checks, serialization formats - are conventions, and conventions fail when a layer understands something it was not supposed to understand. This paper presents the Monkey Business Arithmetic Spectator Pipeline (MBP), a conjectural architectural framework that attempts an algebraic refactoring of the layered-system problem. The MBP separates the algebra of calculating (mathematical operations) from the algebra of computing (weighing and balancing outputs) into a 6-level nested hierarchy, governed by a scale-indexed operation sequence. The paper offers structural specification, candidate algebras and an architectural interpretation of layered computation.
