The present discrepancy in the cosmic expansion rate, known as the Hubble tension, is treated in the standard ΛCDM paradigm as a scalar conflict between early-universe calibration and local distance measurements. This paper demonstrates that this conflict is a mathematical artifact produced by compressing distinct geometric readout lanes into a single scalar H₀. Within the axiomatic Mittermeier Attractor Theory (MAT), we present a deterministic, parameter-free closure-first resolution. The vacuum closure condition δ₃ (Λ₀*) = 0 strictly determines the active vacuum point Λ₀* ≈ 2. 817 × 10^ (-122) and a universal chart residue δα_ (chart, π) * ≈ 0. 01519. From this single residue, exact affine projections generate both the CMB-facing matter density Ω_ (m, P) * ≈ 0. 315141 and the late-time proper-time density Ω_ (m, D) * ≈ 0. 298052. Their separation is governed by the exact active-branch identity ΔΩₘ* = (9/8) δα_ (chart, π) *. Inserting the late-time density into the closed Friedmann denominator yields a native proper-time expansion rate of H₀* ≈ 66. 2020 km s^ (-1) Mpc^ (-1). The Hubble tension is thus internally resolved as readout-lane conflation. The same late-time branch also fixes the smooth-gate linear perturbation sector: structure growth is propagated on the native late-time matter lane, with its source set by the MAT matter history and its damping set by the MAT Hubble-friction history, while the conventional S₈ scaling is retained only as a fixed-amplitude audit coordinate. Consequently, the growth sector supplies an additional covariance direction of the same closure residue rather than an independent fitted amplitude. The resulting theory defines a deterministic, overdetermined multi-probe displacement vector, tied to the same vacuum residue that fixes Λ₀*, Ω_ (m, P) *, Ω_ (m, D) *, and H₀*. External falsification is therefore not organized around isolated point-value comparisons, but around full covariance alignment, cos (θC), against the combined Planck–BAO–SNe–growth–chronometer data space.
