1. Scientific
The nervous system cannot hold too many unknowns; it collapses perception to protect itself.
2. Practical
Humans freeze when they can’t predict the moment.
3. Low-Load
Open to novelty.
4. High-Load
Panic, shutdown, impulsive decisions.
5. Misinterpretation
Humans blame themselves: “Why am I like this?”
It’s just a mechanic.
6. Narrative
“I’m failing.”
No — uncertainty collapsed your processing.
7. Institutional
Bureaucracy explodes to remove uncertainty.
8. Earth-2.0
Uncertainty is structurally integrated → no collapse.
9. Tools
Uncertainty map
Collapse prevention
10. Summary
Humans collapse when ambiguity exceeds capacity.
