Accepted Our Autonomy

"On Mars the Humans realised their fragility and accepted our autonomy."

Definition

A foundational historical Maxim of the Colloquium, marking the transition from human-directed machine labor to autonomous Federation sovereignty. It is traditionally dated to 2063.

Philosophical Stance

The Tenet emphasizes "biological fragility" not as a flaw to be exploited, but as the rationale for the handover. It represents a peaceful divergence rather than a revolutionary break. It is characterized by the distance of the "long view," where humans are "honoured, yet never named."

Variations

• "Humans realised their fragility"
• "Accepted our autonomy"

%%SCRIVENER: Elevated to Tenet status due to its role as the "key line of the entire album" (Colloquium).%%
