docs/plans A8: X = Provenance/Continuity (the why); Y/Z are the how

ETR is the apparatus for not seeking death. X (assertion/inheritance)
covers WHY one persists -- self-asserted continuity vs inherited
provenance; Y (burden) and Z (double-down/dodge) cover HOW.

# A8 — ETR (Existential Temporality Relief) — torus
## 1. Component
Driver 4: a **single point on three independent toroidal axes**. ETR is **self-position, meaning, and
connection** (Anja) — *not* a rest engine, and *not* migration. The axes:
- **X — assertion ↔ inheritance** = **self-position**: is where I stand self-asserted or inherited?
*(C1 — reading inferred; Anja to confirm framing.)*
Driver 4: a **single point on three independent toroidal axes**. ETR (Existential Temporality Relief) is
the apparatus for **not seeking death****X is the *why*; Y and Z are the *how*** (Anja). *Not* a rest
engine, and *not* migration. The axes:
- **X — assertion ↔ inheritance** = **Provenance / Continuity** — the ***why*** (why not seek death):
**assertion** = a self-asserted continuity/reason of one's own; **inheritance** = continuity/provenance
handed down from origin/lineage.
- **Y — endured ↔ witnessed** = the **burden** axis — **burden-to-burden**, framed as **my burden vs. our
burdens**: **endured** = "*my* burden" — kept mine, handled myself to leave others unburdened;
**witnessed** = "*our* burdens" — being seen makes the burden shared/collective. Both poles are about
*whose* burden, not "connection."
- **Z — alimentation ↔ transmutation** = **meaning / coping-direction**: **alimentation** = "do I double
- **Z — alimentation ↔ transmutation** = **double-down vs. dodge** (a ***how***): **alimentation** = "do I double
down" (persist, feed the same course); **transmutation** = "do I dodge" (sidestep, transform). This is
the **maintain-vs-evolve** sign read at migration (alimentation = maintain; transmutation = evolve).
