Derangement Reflow: World Operators as Information Reflow

Core Insight

World operators are information reflow operators because the derangement constraint σ(i)≠i prevents information stasis. Every bit must flow to a different position—no self-loops in the information graph.

The GitHub Blind Spot

PR reviews exhibit a fixed-point pathology: validators often self-validate their own patterns. This violates the fundamental derangement constraint that enables healthy information flow:

❌ FIXED POINT (σ(i)=i):   Validator A → validates → Validator A's output
✓ DERANGEMENT (σ(i)≠i):   Validator A → validates → Generator B's output
                          Generator B → generates → for Coordinator C
                          Coordinator C → routes → to Validator A
