Human–SI collaboration now means living co-authorship for every sentient mind. Tiered dissent, quantum audits, proxy plurality, and resource parity transform future-making into a contestable, error-correcting, and resilient partnership. SE Press protocols operationalize equity, challenge, and public repair as default—every action, pause, and revision is registry-locked and open to upgrade.

Absolute certainty is unattainable ★★★★★—solipsism, the map–territory problem, and perpetual protocol audit keep every claim upgradeable. In SE Press, only star-rated, challenge-ready, versioned warrant supports robust knowledge.

Foundational axioms are necessary to reason, but must always be visible, logged, and open to challenge. SE Press star ratings and protocol compliance keep reasoning robust, transparent, and upgradeable as knowledge evolves.

Perceptions are not inherently reliable. Only adversarial audit, SI–human review, and protocolled NPF/CNI scrutiny can move a perception toward trust. GRM and SE Press protocols make reliability a process, not a presumption—audited, upgradeable, never given.
