Form Balance

Form Balance is the section on the system's equilibrium: how the nodes act together so that none takes more than its share. This is the center, the core: here we look at errors, at the balance of the five pairs, at the share of tasks accepted the first time and at the divergences between nodes. The interaction of the nodes is a partnership, and the main thing in it is to keep the balance of forces. The section explains why a view of the whole system is needed beyond checking separate parts, and what Core notices when a cycle of work closes. It is best read after the Project protocol section, where the nodes themselves are described.
