16. LIMITATIONS

We acknowledge the following limitations:

16.1 Mathematical Limitations

  1. Renormalization: The χ-Lagrangian requires full renormalization analysis
  2. Coupling Constants: κ, β, λ are phenomenological—need deeper derivation
  3. Φ-Field Dynamics: Full field equations for Φ need further development
  4. Quantum Gravity: Full χ-gravity coupling awaits quantum gravity resolution

16.2 Experimental Limitations

  1. Direct χ Measurement: No current technology can directly measure χ-field
  2. Grace Function: Quantifying “moral coherence” remains challenging
  3. Cosmological Tests: CMB predictions require advanced statistical methods
  4. Scale Limitations: Framework untested at Planck scale

16.3 Theological Limitations

  1. Free Will: Mechanism for libertarian agency not fully specified
  2. Evil: Mathematical description of moral evil remains incomplete
  3. Trinity Mapping: Full formal treatment of perichoresis pending

These are research frontiers, not fatal flaws.
