contents <p>A universal speed limit is derived using only Postulates P1 and P2 of the Quantum Entanglement Spacetime Theory (QuEST). No assumptions regarding metric geometry, field equations, or physical constants are introduced. The result follows solely from symbolic execution of local state influence over a discrete quantum hypergraph. The emergent maximum signal speed arises from finite causal connectivity and strict locality, and aligns with the observed speed of light under continuum coarse-graining. This derivation establishes the structural sufficiency of P1 and P2, independent of geometric constructs or continuum assumptions.</p>
