3752 — Dagger Closure Launders a Coherent Port into Unprotected Control

Round-trip obstruction

Let (i:E\to S) be the coherent selector port with column vector (i=(1,1)^T). Its external round trip is the scalar (i^\dagger i=2), but ordinary dagger closure also generates

ii†=(1111).ii^\dagger= \begin{pmatrix}1&1\\1&1\end{pmatrix}.

This selector endomorphism does not commute with the protected projector. Hence freely adjoining a coherent port and its dagger launders port authority into unprotected internal-control authority.

A sector-pure port has a protected diagonal round trip, but contains no relative coherence and cannot detect the metaplectic sign.

Structural consequence

Object typing alone is insufficient. The instrument needs a source-authorized partial composition law. Protected endomorphisms and coherent ports should be different arrow kinds, as in a colored operad or double category; a companion, conjoint, dagger, or internal round trip must not be inferred without a typed cell.

Executable closure therefore means closure under authorized composites, not under every formally type-correct composite.

Evidence

The exact checker passes 9 of 9 gates. Checker SHA-256: 0998ff89f1a3bcf0c917c8a10a4bdb64ef9c756f9e806964fd7324ae006d5bbc.
