Autonomic Nervous System — the actuators
nested control systems
Level 4 of the Nested Control-Systems stack. The physical state actuators: sympathetic/parasympathetic branches are the downstream effectors of hierarchical command, not the primary drivers of dysregulation. These layers do not compete; they nest — each operates at a different level of one causal system, which is why treating them as rivals was a decades-long error. Source: Autonomic physiology (sympathetic/parasympathetic effectors); downstream of L1–L3 control.
