module-boundary-is-universal-containment-mechanism

Status: IN

The module boundary serves as the architecture's universal containment mechanism across two independent concerns: quality properties (each module's simplicity-to-verification cycle is hermetically self-contained with no cross-module dependencies) and pragmatic tradeoffs (brute-force algorithms, bounded collections, and simplified implementations are safely confined by module isolation) — ensuring that per-module design choices neither constrain nor compromise other modules.

Justifications

Module boundaries contain both quality cycles and pragmatic tradeoffs, making them the universal isolation mechanism

Depends on (SL): verified-simplicity-is-hermetically-contained, pedagogical-breadth-is-safely-contained
