Einstein–Rosen bridges, Morris–Thorne wormholes, and the ER EPR proposal concern geometric or gravitational structures EinsteinRosen,MorrisThorne,MaldacenaSusskind. Gravitational traversability constructions also specify interactions, matter stress, and backreaction GaoJafferisWall,MaldacenaStanfordYang. Those structures are not specified by an isometry .
Here “mouth” is an overlay label for an output factor. “Throat” is an overlay label for the complete complementary channel and its input dependence. The complement is a channel, not a third tensor factor, a tunnel, or a proper-length quantity. “Operational traversability” means successful quantum return through the declared receiver. It is directional and does not claim a causal curve from one spatial mouth to another.
