- <p>This paper extends the finite accessibility (FA) program by showing that the effective certification ceiling must erode over cosmological time. The argument requires no new postulate: persistent certified structure requires nonzero maintenance under the action gap and intersubjective stability, so the marginal flip budget available for new refinement falls as committed structure accumulates (Theorem: No Free Refinement). The erosion is conditional on committed maintenance burden outpacing horizon bookkeeping growth, which is the generic late-time cosmological situation.</p> <p>Four consequence channels are derived from this ceiling decay:</p> <p>1. Accessibility erosion. Late-time, small-scale modes lose certifiability, producing a protocol-dependent accessibility operator that yields a natural account of the <strong>S8 tension</strong> through deterministic amplitude bias.</p> <p>2. Gauge-sector expiry hierarchy. Different gauge sectors carry different certification costs, producing a drift ordering (strong before electromagnetic before weak before gravitational) opposite to standard varying-constants predictions.</p> <p>3. Certification cascade. Baryonic matter losing gauge certification cascades to gravitationally-certified-only status (<strong>dark matter</strong> in the FA sense) with near-total mass conversion efficiency, because confinement is a certification economy: the unbound parts are individually more expensive to certify than the composite.</p> <p>4. Geometric derivation of the decay function. A frame-dissolution completion fixes h(t) through a history-dependent horizon burden variable, yielding a geometric reading of cosmological history: <strong>inflation</strong> is the epoch that establishes certification viability; the current epoch is when the ceiling begins to erode.</p> <p>The paper includes a numerical closure test demonstrating that the self-consistency loop (burden, ceiling, regulation, expansion, burden) closes stably with no background cosmological constant, an empirical consistency check against five probes (CMB, galaxy clusters, BOSS, S8 tension, DESI), seven explicit falsification criteria, and a Stage-IV observational roadmap.</p> <p>Companion Python code for the numerical closure test is included.</p> <p>Part of the Finite Accessibility series.
