A viable theological hermeneutic must possess not only interpretive range, but the explicit ethical and procedural capacity to cease operation. This document provides a comprehensive hermeneutical audit across three integrated frameworks: Redemptive Masochistic Testimony (RMT), The Ontology of Preservation, and Hospitality Theology. Moving away from natural-scientific claims of empirical falsifiability, this addendum re-defines its rigor through hermeneutical contestability, exclusion criteria, and conditions of non-applicability. It explicitly establishes that no suffering automatically enters RMT, no subject may be coerced into self-dissection, and Hospitality Theology is a complete, non-instrumental theological end in itself.
