Core Discovery
Universal organizational regularity: In every complex system studied (biological, ecological, social, technological), real interaction strengths organize memory at greater hierarchical depths than topology alone.
Key Insight
Functional memory in complex systems depends on weight geometry (interaction strength distribution), not just topology (connection structure).
