To construct a predictive, coordinate-based periodic classification system for moral virtues and vices based on formal ontological theorems.
Applied the Ontological Virtue Formula, Inversion Theorem, and Dynamic Freedom Theorem to evaluate the 101-virtue catalogue of the Filosofia das Virtudes.
Conducted a single-coder structural analysis across theoretical rendering blocks and tested predictions against 10 cross-traditionally attested virtue extensions.
Demonstrated that virtues and vices represent identical structural forms under different orientations rather than distinct populations, unifying 101 paired entries into 101 singular entities.
Identified that inversion channels depend on domain dispositional properties, specifically output appropriability and display value.
Validated the coordinate framework using independent cross-traditional candidates, where 7 of 10 filled predicted vacancies and closed 32 of 36 open table positions with 27 predicted elements.
