Principlev1
Separate feedback loops by timescale, tuning faster inner
Separate feedback loops by timescale, tuning faster inner loops before slower outer loops, and prevent slow loops from interfering with fast loop corrections.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Hierarchical Chunking Expands Capacity (hierarchically organized systems with stable subsystems evolve faster) and Experience Segments into Nested Hierarchical Events (brain segments experience into nested hierarchical events). This principle prescribes a specific design pattern for nested control systems — cascade control with timescale separation. It's general enough to apply across domains but specific enough to be actionable.
