Repositioning Fundamental Physics through the OPT–IAF–PFSCT Framework

This work presents a framework-level repositioning of fundamental physics based on the principles of finite operation and finite boundary control.

Rather than assuming idealized infinite observability, unlimited resolution, or instantaneous evaluation, the OPT–IAF–PFSCT framework explicitly models where evaluation is placed, how boundaries are imposed, and how correlation structures become partially unobservable or operationally sealed under finite conditions. From this perspective, many phenomena traditionally treated as distinct—such as irreversibility, entropy production, hidden degrees of freedom, and delayed decision making—are understood as structural consequences of finite operational constraints.

The paper does not propose a competing physical theory in the conventional sense. Instead, it provides a structural reference frame for reinterpreting existing theories across theoretical physics and information theory, clarifying why certain descriptions arise and where their operational limits reside. The result is a unifying viewpoint that preserves established results while reorganizing their conceptual placement under finite operational assumptions.
