Recursive, nested emergence that expands dimensionality rather than regresses.
Not vertical (higher/lower) but topological. Nested bow-ties: each ✶ becomes substrate for next. Lossy iteration: ε ≠ 0 ensures new information enters.
Formula: Previous ✶ → New σ → New ρ → New λ → New ✶
Diagnostic: Does each iteration add information or merely repeat?
