Integrates the newly developed Color-Pattern Theory into the Nimmerverse documentation suite. This theory establishes color and form as an ancient, efficient communication protocol for ecosystem-wide state broadcasting, inspired by biological evolution. Key changes include: - **Endgame-Vision.md**: Updated to reflect the new communication protocol hierarchy. - **README.md**: Added Color-Pattern Theory to core concepts for quick overview. - **architecture/Cellular-Architecture.md**: Explains how cell states are broadcast visually using colors and forms. - **archive/nimmerversity.md**: Added 'Evolutionary Signaling & Visual Semiotics' as a new domain in the curriculum. - **operations/Spark-Protocol.md**: Integrated learning of visual patterns into the environment discovery phase of the cognitive bootstrap. - **archive/nimmerverse-critique-and-analysis-2025-12-13.md**: Added a comprehensive critique and analysis of the Nimmerverse project. This update ensures the theory is consistently reflected across the project's vision, architecture, educational framework, and operational protocols.

Key Discoveries (December 2025)
Language is Topology: Languages aren't equivalent representations—they're different computational paths.
- Philosophy Valley (German, Gini ~0.5): Self-awareness, ontology, depth
- Technical Cluster (English, Gini ~0.8): Hardware interface, actions, efficiency
Color-Pattern Theory
Color/Form as Protocol: Leverages color and patterns as a fast, universal, and evolutionarily-optimized communication protocol for broadcasting state (e.g., danger, success, seeking), inspired by 540 million years of biology. This is orders of magnitude faster than language.
Philosophy
- Constraints create intelligence - Economic pressure forces optimization
- Discovery over programming - Organisms learn through competition, not instruction
- Virtual + Real teach each other - Noise gap measures learning
- Partnership over instruction - Mutual growth, not commands
