Formalize negotiated agreements between internal drives as
Formalize negotiated agreements between internal drives as written contracts with specific terms, mutual benefits, enforcement mechanisms, and renegotiation clauses to prevent decay and motivated reinterpretation.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from exponential decay of unrehearsed information (Exponential Information Decay), externalization producing new understanding (Externalization Exposes Hidden Structure), and consistency with written commitments (Humans systematically prefer to be consistent with their). The principle prescribes converting negotiated settlements into external artifacts that resist memory decay and motivated reinterpretation.
