Structural Pattern · BCI Lexicon
Structural Leakage
The hidden erosion of Meaning Tension caused by governance drift or strategic incoherence — typically visible as revenue growth occurring alongside a simultaneous decline in pricing power.
Mechanism
The defining signature is the divergence itself: top-line growth continuing while the ability to hold price is already gone. The cause is specifically governance-level (drift, incoherent strategy across functions or geographies) rather than a single distribution decision or an external macro shock — which is what distinguishes it from the Legibility Trap and from ordinary cyclical demand weakness.
No registry case has yet been matched to this pattern with confidence. Definition only, until real evidence supports a specific example.
Definitional Authority — This term is defined canonically in BSIP v4.0 and the White Paper v4.0. This page restates that definition on its own address for reference; it is not an independent source and does not diverge from it.
