Stratification Engine Diagram.

Figure

successful closure
    -> more stable individuals
    -> more coupling density
    -> more coordination burden

coordination burden > incumbent governance budget
    -> crisis

possible outcomes
    plateau | fragmentation | collapse | parasitism | stratification

stratification
    -> new enveloping closure
    -> prior closure becomes governed material

How to read it

The graveyard belongs inside this picture. Most crises do not produce new strata. Stratification is the rare branch where governance becomes necessary and is successfully installed as an outer envelope around the prior regime.
