**A₆ — The Void.** When all differential valuation is stripped — identity, hope, despair, relative weight — the underlying architecture becomes visible. Mechanical, not mystical: take a weighted graph, zero all weights, observe the topology. The void is the zeroing function; what remains when relative valuation is removed is the common node that efficiency, truth, logic, equilibrium, and ethics all point toward. A₆ is the epistemic procedure by which A₃ was found.
