Onsager Reciprocity
Cross-responses in the CES economy satisfy the Onsager symmetry: L_ij = L_ji.

Score Reasoning
- Importance
- Core dynamics result connecting cross-sector adjustment symmetry to potential structure. Essential for the conservative-dissipative framework in Paper 3.
- Novelty
- Transplanting Onsager reciprocity from thermodynamics to CES economics is a new connection. The corollary error (noted in the article) shows careful self-correction.
- Quality
- Well-structured with LaTeX, proof sketch, important caveat section, and cross-links to variance-response, conservation-laws, ces-potential.
