Any localized state in $\mathcal{H}_{\text{mem}}$ injected into the network is globally entangled and its classical correlations are decohered in $\mathcal{O}(\ln N)$ steps. Because the observer requires persistent local state isolation bounded by the scaling window ($\ln N \ll T$), expander topologies violently violate this condition ($\tau_{\text{scr}} < T$). Thus, expander graphs are excluded from the observer-compatible subspace $\Omega_{\rm obs}$. Therefore, both shallow KR traps and deep topological expanders are exactly eliminated by the observer projection operator $\Pi_{\mathcal{O}}$, leaving them physically unexperienceable. \section{Dimensional Suppression via Graph Expansion} The requirement for local memory survival ($\tau_{\text{scr}} \gg T$) acts as a strict topological filter. Because memory survival requires a slow scrambling time, it mathematically forbids graphs with high connectivity. -\textbf{Proposition 3 (Topological Dimensionality Bound):} To preserve local memory while maintaining a fully interconnected global substrate (Definition 2), the selected physical causal set must be restricted to a low-dimensional, low-expansion network ($d \le 2$). +\textbf{Heuristic Argument 3 (Topological Dimensionality Bound):} To preserve local classical correlations while maintaining a fully interconnected global substrate (Definition 2), the selected physical causal set must be restricted to a low-dimensional network ($d \le 2$). -\textit{Proof.} The topological dimensionality of a discrete graph is inversely correlated with its Cheeger constant (expansion). High-dimensional or infinite-dimensional graphs (such as randomly connected non-manifold posets) are characterized by $\mathcal{O}(1)$ expansion, leading to $\tau_{\text{scr}} \sim \ln N$. Low-dimensional lattices ($d \le 2$) exhibit slow, diffusive scrambling $\tau_{\text{scr}} \sim N^{2/d}$. Applying the projection operator $\Theta(\tau_{\text{scr}} - T)$ forces the selection of graphs with minimal expansion. Since a globally connected substrate (Definition 2) cannot be an expander graph if it is to support memory, the path integral dynamically collapses onto lower-dimensional configurations. $\square$ +\textit{Argument.} If memory survival requires information to remain localized rather than dissipating globally, the substrate must support recurrent, non-transient classical correlations. By P\'olya's Recurrence Theorem, a simple random walk on a $d$-dimensional lattice is recurrent (information stays local and returns) if and only if $d \le 2$. For $d \ge 3$, the walk is transient (information escapes to infinity). Because an observer requires the recurrent preservation of a local memory register over a macroscopic timeline $T$, substrates with topological dimension $d \ge 3$ function as macroscopic dissipators. The strict condition $\Theta(\tau_{\text{scr}} - T)$ thus dynamically restricts the path integral to low-dimensional recurrent configurations ($d \le 2$). \section{Interpretational Outlook: The Virtual Machine} Because the objective causal substrate is mathematically constrained to low-dimensional, low-expansion topologies ($d \le 2$), 4D macroscopic Lorentzian spacetime cannot be an objective bulk container. Drawing on the interface theory of perception \cite{Hoffman2015}, we propose the ontological interpretation that 4D Minkowski space acts as an exact geometric data structure---a "Virtual Machine" interface---synthesized by the biological observer to decode the 2D causal data stream.
