The Becoming framework derives Standard Model parameters, cosmological constants, and structural predictions in medicine and consciousness from a single primitive — a system whose interior differential and self-registration mutually constitute each other — with zero free parameters. Starting from three axioms, the framework builds the Yost Unit (YU), bead/hyperboloid geometry, and formation-cost ledger dynamics, yielding closed derivations including θ (0) = 1/2 (two independent paths), Koide mass relations, α₃ (MZ), and a cancer-coherence threshold validated across five tumor types (Spearman ρ = 1. 000). Derivations proceed via the Analog Method, a formal cross-domain triangulation protocol requiring two independent domains to confirm before any translation is accepted. This version (v41) includes full documentation of negative results — including four failed attempts at a lens-optimality derivation of θ (0) = 1/2 and the closure of the resolution-efficiency factor η (z) = 1 — logged with the same rigor as positive closures, consistent with the framework's standing discipline that a documented failure is a kept result.
