Symbol G

The passage around this formula

I call the product intention-gap volume : $G_{tr}=K_t H_{tr}\qquad [G]=\mathrm{bit\!\text{-}\!transitions}$. The word “volume” is deliberately qualified. These are constructed units, not cubic meters and not an intrinsic property of a repository. They make two axes do work at once: how many plausible completion stories the request supports, and how many consequential points at which the agent must turn a story into an irreversible or checkable change. Multiplying is appropriate only if the transition count is fixed across redactions and the entropy is measured from the request, not from the model’s successful patch. That is why the endpoint stays fixed and annotation happens before attempts begin.
