Interjecting:

Reducibility (Regularity): the possibility of reducing an observable phenomenon to a formula. That’s what reduction means. Just as language reduces an experience to a narrative.

Predictability (reducibility): The use of a formula to predict an outcome using variables. Mathematical predictability is high and computational predictability is (very) low.

Computability (operations): anything operationally (existentially) possible can be computed operationally. But very little is predictable.

Causal Density (variability): the variability of a computable set of operations is dependent upon the externalities included in the computation. This may have a spectrum of effects that at one end might increase variation (produce opportunities), and on the other might decrease variation (produce limits). And many known extremely simple algorithms produce a distribution of high variation outcomes and low variation (regular) outcomes.
