Gravity
Static compensation associated with bound energy.
CANDIDATE
Working mechanism
UGSD investigates gravity as the static compensating response sourced by bound energy, while open/free response propagates. This is an effective candidate mechanism, not a claim that Einstein’s equations have already been uniquely derived from the minimal CORE.

CALIBRATION
Absolute coupling
The measured gravitational normalization G is treated as a branch calibration unless and until it is independently derived from deeper UGSD structure.
OPEN
Strong-field completion
Finite-core, saturation and horizon-completion questions remain open candidate territory.
