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).

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

NUL enables consolidation, refinement, and essential simplification while maintaining
2389+
structural pressure continuity.
