They identify misreadings of key enactive concepts. The paper concludes that core assumptions in FEP contradict central commitments in enaction.\\n\\nCore results include the identification of two main tensions. FEP relies on systems reaching non-equilibrium steady states (NESS) and being defined by Markov blankets. Enaction emphasizes the historicity of sense-making, adaptivity, and agency through ongoing modulation of agent-environment couplings. These elements allow path-dependent change in parameters and constraints.\\n\\nThe authors argue that FEP's time-invariant NESS assumptions clash with enactive views of precarious, self-constituting agents that develop historically. Enactive sense-making also foregrounds constitutive roles of the world, challenging FEP's internalist framing.\\n\\n## Exact Primary Works and Passages\\nThe primary work is Di Paolo, E.
