or two — never an expression:
| Rule | Value | Reads (via Information Links) | Emergent behaviour |
| ---------------- | --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| **Constant** | a fixed number | nothing | linear Stock change |
| **Proportional** | `factor × (its `+` inputs)` | the `+`-polarity inputs | exponential growth / decay |
| **Gap** | `factor × (level − target)` | the `+` input is _level_, `−` is _target_ | goal-seeking / asymptotic |
| **Overflow** | `max(0, factor × (level − threshold))` | the `+` input is _level_, `−` is _threshold_ | a spillway / hard ceiling |
