CE_9 Entanglement and Collapse as Internal Admissible Redescriptions
Abstract
This paper shows that entanglement and collapse do not require ontic processes, dynamical events, or nonlocal mechanisms. When constraint envelopes and admissibility are enforced, both are shown to be internal re-descriptions within a single admissible representational regime, rather than physical interactions or causal transitions. The analysis demonstrates that treating entanglement as a real linkage between systems, or collapse as a temporal process, relies on illicit scope transport across envelope boundaries. Once envelope non-contact is respected, these notions appear only as alternative internal descriptions that preserve standing under different representational choices. The result clarifies why quantum nonlocality paradoxes arise from misclassifying internal re-descriptions as cross-envelope effects. No mechanisms, dynamics, or measurement prescriptions are introduced. The paper records entanglement and collapse as admissible bookkeeping alternatives within an envelope, not as fundamental physical phenomena.
