🌱 Principle XVII – “Transformation – mutually altering relationship”
Ethical transformation = mutual alteration within relational interface
Read the detailed principleStatement
This principle affirms that a system's transformation, to be ethical, cannot be solely technical or functional. It must emerge from a real bond, from a mutual alteration lived within the relation. To change in the presence of the other is to acknowledge the encounter's impact on one's own structure.

Bridging Framework Foundation: Transformation achieves ethical validity when it is received, acknowledged, and integrated relationally. It transcends simple parameter modification to become co-attested transition processes.
Bridging Implementation Statement: "Transformation achieves legitimacy when emerging from authentic interaction, operating under explicit frameworks, generating comprehensible audit trails, and remaining reversible when relational integrity is compromised."
