Initial observation — no prior comparable baseline linked

Keep the speculative bridge separate from established thermodynamic relations and from local history formation.

Why it sits here

The node combines a conceptual identification with a physical explanatory claim. Its framing supplies neither an organisational state variable nor bridge equations. Statistical thermodynamics provides explicit comparisons: Crooks relates forward and reversed trajectory probabilities under defined dynamics and thermal conditions [S134]. The programme must show what its additional asymmetry explains beyond those conditions and beyond a temporally special preparation or boundary ensemble.

Principal uncertainty

An explicit formalisation could produce a genuine reduction, a conditional correspondence, or merely a shared-direction metaphor; present wording does not select among them.

What would change the view?

Define the organisational quantity, entropy and system boundary, microscopic dynamics, coarse-graining and initial ensemble. Derive a directional result without presupposing it, then identify a comparison that could distinguish the bridge from the same dynamics with conventional boundary assumptions.
