abstract
We make the simple observation that, because of global symmetry violating higher-dimension operators expected to be induced by Planck-scale physics, textures are generically much too short-lived to be of use for large-scale structure formation.

Deconstructing the Extra-Dimensional Axion
A 4D moose gauge theory with gauged WZW term deconstructs the 5D orbifold axion, reproducing its shift symmetry, instanton effects, and quality features via collective PNGB dynamics.
