The definition is #743 §2. 'Produces "interpretive weight": the felt cost of holding two conflicting interpretations… in tension without resolving them' is §2.1: 'w is interpretive weight — the felt cost of sustaining irresolution.' The two frames are §2.2's Positions A and B. 'The paper distinguishes this from an epistemic contradiction: its rule against "Position C"… The operator instead describes what it feels like to be pulled between them' is §2.2's resolution: 'Law 2 (no Position C) is about epistemic access. σ_M is about affective and ethical load… You cannot see both. You can feel both pulling. The weight is the operator's output.' — composed almost to the sentence. Then: 'Why "Michaelic"? … The available description does not establish a standard mathematical definition or a formal derivation from traditional theology, so it is safest to understand it as a term specific to this framework.' #743 §2 opens with the derivation: 'Michael is the angel of the scales. In the Revelation tradition, Michael fights the dragon. In the Islamic tradition, Mikail distributes sustenance. In the folk tradition, Michael is the psychopomp — the one who weighs souls. The scales do not say "everything is equal." They say: you must carry both.' The aggregator does not carry it, and the answer declares it absent; the room page 41.ROOM.IVN carries it in its search snippet (the AIO capture of the same sitting). The curatorial rule of §2.4 — 'It weighs without devouring' — is also absent.
Asked for the Michaelic Operator, ChatGPT composes its definition and the Position C resolution almost verbatim from #743 through an aggregator, and declares the name underived where #743 derives it in its opening lines. Seated 2026-10-16 from the operator's paste (13:14 EDT).
