Gap-2 module on non-equivariant posting: class masses, numerator masses, and the identity that the posted measure equals orbit cardinality times a Gibbs weight. Supplies the comparison sign on naturals and the algebraic mass calculus used when the posting layer is not forced to be gauge-equivariant. Downstream gluing, label-erasure, and hostile-probe modules import it as the posting-side mass layer.

claimOn the Gap-2 posting layer one works with a signed comparison $\mathrm{sgn}_{<}(x,y)\in\{-1,0,1\}$, additive class masses on posted weights, a numerator mass, and a total mass. The central relation is $\mu = |\mathrm{Orbit}|\cdot w_{\mathrm{Gibbs}}$ for the posted measure, without assuming equivariance of the posting map.

background

Gap 2 in the Seven Gaps gravity track asks how much structure the posting layer can carry beyond bare counting. The upstream floor module records the committed answer for Track A1.2: GaugeCountingPrinciple is not derived from richer substrate structure at posting; the pinned carrier, a uniqueness wall, and one unexcluded premise are separated cleanly.

This module sits on that floor and treats posting that need not be gauge-equivariant. It introduces a comparison sign on naturals written as a difference of indicators (so swap is a ring identity), then an additive class-mass calculus (zero, add, neg, one) and the masses of numerators and posted weights. The intended bridge to the path-sum measure is the orbit-card times Gibbs-weight factorization of $\mu$.

Notation is RS-native gravity bookkeeping: posted weights, orbit averages, and Gibbs factors at the posting layer, not yet the full gluing or label-erasure Jacobian.

proof idea

Definition-and-lemma layer, not a single theorem. Comparison sign is defined so that swap is immediate ring algebra; case analysis covers the three trichotomy branches. Class mass is shown to be a group homomorphism-style map (zero, add, neg, one). Posted-weight mass and numerator mass are specialized instances. The headline identity equates $\mu$ to orbit cardinality times the Gibbs weight, tying the non-equivariant posting data to the measure used downstream. No deep tactic proof: algebraic identities and direct unfolding of the mass definitions.

why it matters in Recognition Science

Feeds three Gap-2 consumers. Fugacity-posting gluing imports it when asking whether posting plus gluing force unit-sector fugacity; residual freedom there collapses to three positive constants and the unit-fugacity premise. Label erasure uses the posting mass layer so that $\mu$ is the pushforward of a local relabeling-invariant labeled weight, with $1/|\mathrm{Aut}|$ as erasure Jacobian and surviving freedom in the local numerator and three fugacities. The hostile-probe module runs adversarial checks (e.g. that the orbit-mean-one criterion is not vacuous) against this machinery.

In the broader RS gravity program this is scaffolding for Gap 2 of the seven-gap ledger: pinning what non-equivariant posting can and cannot force before gluing and gauge counting are imposed. It does not close flag 8; that waits on G1 and G2 jointly.
