2375- TNFR Context: Contraction reduces EPI surface while maintaining or increasing density,

2377- and essential simplification.
2375+ TNFR Context: Contraction reduces EPI surface and νf while implementing canonical
2376+ ΔNFR densification dynamics. When structure contracts (V' = V × λ, λ < 1), structural
2377+ pressure concentrates: ΔNFR' = ΔNFR × densification_factor (default 1.35). This reflects
2378+ the physics principle that volume reduction increases density, preserving the nodal
2379+ equation ∂EPI/∂t = νf · ΔNFR(t).
2380+
2381+ Canonical Densification:
2382+ - Volume contraction: V' = V × NUL_scale (default 0.85)
2383+ - Density amplification: ΔNFR' = ΔNFR × NUL_densification_factor (default 1.35)
2384+ - Product effect: νf × ΔNFR ≈ 0.85 × 1.35 ≈ 1.15 (slight structural pressure increase)
2385+ - Equilibrium preservation: ΔNFR = 0 remains 0
2386+ - Sign preservation: Negative ΔNFR amplifies correctly

2388+ NUL enables consolidation, refinement, and essential simplification while maintaining
