A Structural Theory of Knowledge Governance v1.6

This record provides the v1.6 release of Knowledge Governance Theory (KGT), the governance companion line adjacent to OPF Core v1.6. Knowledge Governance Theory v1.6 advances a deliberately bounded structural claim:public knowledge claims require explicit governance structure if challenge, incompleteness, revision, supersession, and non-final closure are to remain structurally legible without collapsing into false settlement, silent rewrite, memory-dependent dispute, or recursive paralysis. The theory does not claim authority over domain truth, replacement of domain equations, or a universal dynamics of knowledge.Its claim is narrower: it specifies the governance structure by which publicly circulating claims may be handled under declared conditions, with bounded authority, admission discipline, ledger traceability, and anti-recursive safeguards. This release preserves narrow scope, strict non-circularity, and no-overclaim discipline.The governance line remains distinct from, but complementary to, OPF Core v1.6.The two lines are adjacent, non-substitutive, and should not be collapsed into one undivided theory surface.
