Computation Over Geometry: Meaning Identity Is Computed, Not Shipped in the Embeddings
This breaks an assumption most RAG systems are built on. If semantic identity requires computation over context, then your embeddings are not sufficient for retrieval. The implication: either you're getting lower quality matches than you think, or you need to rethink how you index and query. The finding is clean and holds across multiple model families, so it's not a one-off artifact.
