  • <p>This paper establishes that governance, to remain admissible, must be strictly definition-local. Any form of governance that attempts to operate above, across, or prior to the definitions it governs is shown to violate admissibility by introducing illicit scope transport or implicit global anchoring.</p> <p>The analysis demonstrates that rules, constraints, or validations can only meaningfully apply within the definitional context that gives them reference. Efforts to impose governance externally—through meta-rules, universal standards, or cross-context authority—collapse into ambiguity, retroactive justification, or standing failure once their assumptions are made explicit.</p> <p>The result fixes governance as an internal structural feature of admissible systems rather than an overlay or supervisory layer. Governance does not precede definition, nor can it be abstracted away from it. The paper introduces no governance frameworks, enforcement mechanisms, or operational criteria. It records a necessity boundary showing that admissible governance must be definition-local or not exist at all.</p>
