Construction role

Galaxies are read as relational carrier regimes, not merely as mass distributions inside a background spacetime. Flat rotation curves are attributed to D-sector capacity-gradient structure rather than to an independent dark-matter particle sector. White dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes form a compact-object ladder of the same τ-gravity / defect-capacity dynamics. These are high-risk empirical readouts: lensing, Tully – Fisher, Bullet Cluster, and compact-object observations constrain the claim.

What this step earns

Galaxies, rotation curves, and compact objects is made addressable as Step 071 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.
