2Authored explanation
Research should address this boundary directly: The general ZFC theorem for arbitrary AECs remains open.
A claimed resolution should satisfy every item below and preserve the statement's exact quantifiers and normalizations: - Prove the stated tail transfer in ZFC with an explicit or definable threshold H(κ). - Or construct an AEC with arbitrarily large models categorical once above the proposed threshold but failing categoricity later.
