  "mechanism": "A component added to a system declares an interface with rules that specify both its direct effects and its co-effects on neighbors. Because every effect is defined through the interface, removal can restore the prior state exactly, and the system has no hidden intermediate state. Category-theoretic composition, where each morphism has a defined inverse or identity, formalizes this.",
