• Sentience assessment should seek deep invariants across possible minds, not arbitrary criteria tied to evolution on Earthclaim0.825
  Core normative claim: frameworks must identify fundamental properties of sentience independent of phylogenetic accident or familiar substrates.
• If behaviour is the window to sentience, evaluation criteria must focus on observable response patterns without reference to the means by which they are produced.quote0.822
  Key prescriptive statement supporting the system-agnostic approach.
