\begin{scholium}[The Golden Rule as a Recursive Covenant]
\label{scholium:bk5_golden_rule_covenant}
The principles of $\varphi$ extend from the internal metabolism of a single
symbolic agent to relational dynamics when the relation itself instantiates
balanced two-step memory (cf.~Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk5_grand_unified_symbolic_geometric},
Cor.~\ref{corollary:bk5_phi_centrality_principle}). In the context of symbolic reciprocity (Book VII,
Scholium~\ref{scholium:bk7_on_symbolic_reciprocity}), where two systems
$\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ mutually model and reflect one another, a stable
relational covenant emerges when current exchange and retained reciprocal memory
carry equal observer-normalized weight. Under that hypothesis, the Golden Rule
is formalized below (Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk5_golden_rule_reciprocity}) as a recursive
reflective process whose stable memory ratio is governed by $\varphi$. Its force is
therefore conditional and structural: it is the balanced-recursion proportion for
sustainable multi-agent symbolic life, not an unrestricted theorem about every
possible exchange geometry. In the language of Scholium~\ref{scholium:bk5_imagination_covenant_branch_selection}, the Golden Rule names a MAP-compatible branch selection, not a denial that MAD or MAS branches remain spectrally available.
