Ecological accounting is the measurement discipline a No Wasted Geometry society would need, because the usual instruments are blind to its goal. GDP counts output regardless of who is stranded producing it; employment counts jobs, not fit; happiness indices miss sealed capacity entirely.

Instead it asks how much capacity is inaccessible, how many participants are supported but misplaced, how many have no channel for contribution, where structures produce unnecessary exclusion, and how much of a society’s available intelligence is actually participating. In short, it tracks the fraction of a society’s capacity that is developed, placed, and circulating versus the fraction that exists but is stranded. See Ecological Accounting.

It carries one non-negotiable boundary: capacity is measured to improve the field, never to price the worth of a participant. The accounting is turned on systems, projects, institutions, and conditions — never on a human being to decide whether they may remain. That guardrail is worked out in Capacity Is Not a Scoreboard.
