Abstract

This paper establishes an impossibility result for basis and gauge parameter freedom within a closed admissible framework. It proves that once admissibility is exhausted and standing is conserved, changes of basis or gauge do not license admissible degrees of freedom. Any apparent variability is shown either to collapse under admissible redescription into a fixed representational role or to violate standing through hidden parameterization or illicit scope transport. The analysis is strictly eliminative and non-constructive: it introduces no new primitives, specifies no procedures, and provides no operational guidance. The result functions as a boundary theorem, ruling out basis or gauge choice as sources of admissible freedom in closed systems.
