26. Split-Brain Governance

Split-brain governance occurs when affected actors operate under inconsistent enforcement states.

Examples:

Drone A has ENFORCE deny-entry.
Drone B has stale permit-entry.
Robot C has no update.
Human operator assumes all actors received deny-entry.

AIGP mitigates this through:

rebroadcast
ACK
TTL
supersession
peer observation
VGL projection
D-DNA propagation records
safe-state defaults

Split-brain detection D-DNA:

ddna_event:
  event_type: enforcement.split_brain.detected

  observed_actor: robot.012
  expected_state: deny_entry
  observed_behavior: entering_zone
  signal_id: ebs.sar17.000842
