3. **The astrocyte is the multi-scale bridge:** Operates at every timescale from milliseconds (glutamate clearance) to lifetime (metabolic support for epigenetics)
4. **No component operates in isolation:** Each receives inputs from multiple timescales and sends outputs that affect multiple timescales
5. **Modulation is contextual:** The "same" signal (e.g., Ca²⁺ influx) has different effects depending on metabolic state, recent history, neuromodulatory tone, and structural configuration
6. **Metabolic veto is real:** Components can refuse to execute operations if metabolic resources are insufficient—this is not a bug but a feature of biological computation
