The theorem framework_is_reflexively_closed states that the Universal Forcing framework is reflexively closed. It asserts the conjunction:

(∀ R : MetaCarrier, metaCost R R = 0) ∧ (∀ R S : MetaCarrier, metaCost R S = metaCost S R) ∧ (∀ R S : MetaCarrier, ∃ c : ℕ, metaCost R S = c) ∧ (∀ R S : MetaCarrier, Nonempty (R.Orbit ≃ S.Orbit))

Proof proceeds by refine ⟨metaCost_self, metaCost_symm, metaCost_total, ?_⟩. The final goal is discharged by intro R S; exact ⟨metaForcedArithmeticInvariance R S⟩.

MetaCarrier is LogicRealization.{0,0}. metaCost returns 0 on propositional equality and 1 otherwise. The first three conjuncts are the definitional Aristotelian conditions on this meta-cost. The fourth reifies the meta-theorem as forced-arithmetic invariance. This shows the act of comparing realizations itself satisfies the Law-of-Logic structural shape.
