Formal Limits of Justification: Lock Structures, Boundary Contact, and Non-Replacement

P.S.: The ‘Views’ and ‘Downloads’ metrics displayed by Zenodo have been verified; however, the numbers shown for individual DOIs do not reflect the current cumulative totals. This preprint offers a strictly diagnostic analysis of a formal limit of justification.Anchored in Gödel’s incompleteness result and examined through a boundary contact in Mbembe’s critique, the paper identifies a lock structure in which necessity is asserted by excluding its origin.No solution, framework, or application is proposed.
