Construction role

Heat is read as boundary exchange / transport, not as a primitive substance of disorder. Temperature is the derived defect-gradient readout

, not a primitive thermodynamic variable. The vacuum is the coherent boundary state, not a sum of zero-point mode energies. On this readout, dark energy is not introduced as an independent sector; cosmic acceleration is treated as a base-progression / readout effect whose empirical adequacy must be tested.

What this step earns

Heat, temperature, vacuum, and dark-energy readout is made addressable as Step 067 in the fine-grained Construction Spine routing layer.

• Routing scaffold. Detailed earned-output extraction is pending the source-map pass.

What this step does not yet establish

This route exposes the RC3 construction step for inspection. It does not by itself establish peer review, empirical adequacy, or final manuscript-level source closure.
