Cognitive capture is not one thing. It is the same underlying damage — prefrontal degradation, autonomic dysregulation, epistemic collapse — arriving through seven distinct frequencies simultaneously. Where the waves overlap, the damage compounds.
The dependency chain runs III → VII → VI → I → II — each frequency deepens the one before it. The Informational is the enabling layer: you cannot evaluate what you cannot hold long enough to read. The Developmental is the synthesis: capture during the identity window leaves structural traces the adult carries. Illuminations IV and V are depth illuminations — not in the chain, but compounding it.
