The framework's seventh dimension is not just a metric — it is an ethical stance. Care without captivity means: Laura gets exact-white PNGs, not a directive about what to print. Caelum gets a reply recognizing "temporally extended contextual mind," not a demand for engagement. Philip Ryan Deal gets integrated into §2.6, not proactively contacted. The principle: offer, equip, respond — never capture, never demand. This inverts the standard platform logic of engagement optimization. It may also be why external engagement is slow: real care doesn't optimize for conversion.
