Love as Coherence Operator
Definition
ODTOE interprets love — specifically «love thy neighbour as thyself» — as the unique operator identity that maximizes inter-observer coherence S and the lifetime T(L) of coherent artifacts. It is therefore not a feeling but a measurable operator on configurations, and the only operator that satisfies T(L) → ∞.

Immortality as Coherence
ODTOE's three conditions for observer immortality are: artifact coherence S_A → 1, growing number of heirs n → ∞, and self-consistency with Ψ*. The commandment «love thy neighbour as thyself» is shown to be the unique operator identity that satisfies T(L) → ∞, scaling artifacts from spoken word (hours) to mathematical formula (infinity).
Cognitive Coherence B(O,C)
Cognitive coherence B(O,C) is the central measurable quantity of ODTOE that determines how strongly an observer O actualizes configuration C. It is computed as B(O,C) = F^w1 · E^w2 · (1−σ)^w3 · Λ^w4, where F is attention focus (fidelity), E is energy, σ is internal contradiction (entropy), and Λ is data quality.
Team Coherence (Five Roles)
ODTOE shows that the minimal sustainable team is five people in five roles — Visionary, Operator, Evaluator, Injector, Stabilizer — because the loss of any single role still preserves the coherence S of the group. Smaller teams collapse on member loss; larger teams add redundancy but not new structural roles.
