rule of placement

In my gift-ontology, the rule of placement is the disciplined method of locating where novelty is allowed to land once simplicity and pure act are fixed. It is not merely a linguistic trick. It is a metaphysical control-regime. It tells how to speak truthfully about creation, grace, providence, Incarnation, Eucharist, and sanctification without introducing composition or becoming in God. Whenever a description smuggles in “God is internally revised by effects,” the rule of placement corrects it by relocating novelty term-side. The rule also blocks multiple failure modes: process-theism, necessitarian emanation, occasionalism, and semantic deflation. It aims to preserve maximal Catholic commitments simultaneously: God truly gives and acts, creatures truly change and act, and God does not become.
