The Mass Account: Held Spin

The dismissal is on record and it is the author's: the Higgs boson is bullshit (Oct 29, 13:13). A dismissal is not an account. A list of open questions named the hole in full: no statement of what gives things their mass in this framework. The author's blueprint called it the blueprint's emptiest component. This paper states the account that stands in the dismissal's place, as the author's declaration. Mass is held spin. A thing weighs what its held spin weighs. The pairing ledger is the mass ledger's other face. Masses read as charges of held spin, through the framework's one spin coupling, the Einstein–Cartan algebraic response, which answers torsion to spin. This is a mechanism statement, not a spectrum. It prices no mass value. This paper says that plainly, here and again in §4, because a reader who misses it will misquote the paper. The account carries the test that would produce it or kill it, and its ways to die, on its face. Mass ratios must come out writable in the pairing ledger's terms. The named open wound stands against it in full: the Koide identity among the charged leptons' masses has not been derived.
