  "abstract": "-Shamiul Hoque Shan\n\nThis manuscript proposes the Systemic Frame-Operation Coherence Principle (SFOCP)\n\nas a provisional analytical framework for examining the compatibility of a target, a conceptual\n\nor structural frame, an operation, and the outcome produced by their interaction. Its primary\n\nmotivating case is the Non-Religious Categorical Ranking Paradox (NCRP), concerning\n\nthe conditions under which a non-religious identity or group may be included in a ranking\n\ndescribed as a ranking of religions. The case does not establish a paradox merely by naming\n\nit: its classification depends on the declared scope of the category, the membership rule,\n\nthe operation being performed, and the metric used for comparison. A ranking of religious\n\nand non-religious identity groups may be coherent, whereas placing a non-religious group\n\ninside a strictly defined class of religions without justification may constitute a category error.\n\nAmbiguous claims about which group is \"growing most\" introduce a separate measurement\n\nproblem unless absolute growth, relative growth, and population share are distinguished.\n\nThe manuscript develops operational definitions, a compatibility architecture, a condi-\n\ntional mathematical representation, six analytical layers, and a proposed thirty-case research\n\nmatrix. It distinguishes logical inconsistency, semantic ambiguity, measurement error, model\n\nmisspecification, operational failure, and genuine paradox. It also specifies assumptions, coun-\n\nterexamples, rival explanations, and falsification requirements. The formalism is intentionally\n\nconditional: the equations organize the analysis but do not, by themselves, prove that one\n\nuniversal law governs every system. No empirical validation or literature-wide novelty claim\n\nis asserted here. The framework is presented as a research proposal whose generality must be\n\nestablished through operationalization, comparative testing, and independent replication.",
