The Big Spillover: A Hypothesis of Cohesion, Matter, and Expansion

The Big Spillover presents a speculative but structured cosmological framework in which existence begins when potential becomes distinct. From that starting point, the manuscript develops a continuity of concepts linking distinction, lawful state transitions, closure, matter, gravity-like recapture, dark matter-like cohesion, rupture, expansion, collapse families, and information retention. In this framework, matter is interpreted as stable displaced cohesion geometry, gravity as recapture tendency and tension response to field displacement, and some dark matter-like effects as possible consequences of extended cohesive field structure rather than missing mass alone. The manuscript is not presented as a completed field theory, but as a falsifiable unifying hypothesis with explicit observational stakes. The most speculative parts of the framework concern compact-collapse bifurcation, the retained branch of pure zero, black diamond states, the expressive slash-state S(/), and the possibility of observable consequences such as ghost lensing, particle-track jitter, near-miss repulsion, and distinct collapse families. These claims are presented as testable proposals, not established results. This version supersedes earlier formulations by narrowing unsupported empirical claims, clarifying the conceptual architecture, improving internal consistency, and foregrounding falsifiability.
