Constraint Collapse
Constraint Collapse is the condition in which feedback, consequence, and correction remain present but lose their ability to enforce change. Systems continue to operate, monitor, report, and update, yet no longer possess reliable mechanisms for invalidating error or stopping misaligned processes.
The system does not fail in the traditional sense. It persists while losing the ability to correct itself.
