The composition paradigm's scalability advantage achieves complete epistemic closure: its quantitative demonstrations (Bridge M×N and Decorator 2^n explosion prevention with complete creational backing) provide the empirical evidence, while the runtime/compile-time divergence provides the causal mechanism — inheritance creates combinations as static compile-time classes (hence exponential proliferation), composition creates them as dynamic runtime configurations (hence linear class requirements) — establishing not just that composition scales but why it must.
Quantitative proof (what) and runtime dynamism (why) together achieve epistemic closure on composition scalability
