  71    Formally: c is a SelfRefQuery if there exists a "decoder" function
  72    that maps c to the proposition ¬Stabilizes(c). -/

  74  /-- The configuration -/
  75  config : ℝ
  76  /-- The self-referential property: c encodes "I don't stabilize" -/

  79/-- **THEOREM 1**: Self-referential stabilization queries are contradictory.

  81    If c encodes "c ⟺ ¬Stab(c)", then assuming c has any definite
  82    stabilization status leads to contradiction.
  83
  84    This is the heart of the Gödel dissolution: such c cannot exist
  85    as consistent configurations. -/
