Problem 8 remains open
External time and Problem 8 › Finite cuts do not determine a continuum interpolation · lines 1741–1753
8 remains open{ X-K-ST's destructive clocks on a composed finite route are not quantized relational time without an external clock.
Clock encodings, preparation, labels, locations, durations, and the operational schedule remain externally supplied. Consuming a clock does not consume the geometric time axis.
The release is a scope certificate for this finite construction, not a universal impossibility theorem for every proposed solution of Problem 8.}
