This updated version clarifies the structural causality behind the discovery. This record contains the manuscript "Discovery of the Law of Autocatalytic Inevitability: A New Natural Law Governing Network Self-Organization" along with a supplementary FAQ document clarifying key aspects, implications, and practical relevance of this discovery. Rather than presenting the Law of Autocatalytic Inevitability as a self-standing principle, this version emphasizes that the law emerges as a mathematical consequence of a specific method of decentralized empathic self-organization implemented via the Social Organizer - a neutral recording tool that formalizes real empathic connections. The paper mathematically proves that when three architectural conditions are met - harm prevention (H(a,v) = 0), connection inheritance (E(v_new) = E(v_parent) ∪ {v_parent}), and Dunbar-limited empathic foundation - global cooperation does not need to be negotiated but emerges deterministically, described by the law (N(l) = k^l). The discovery introduces a paradigm shift from trust-based cooperation to structural inevitability through empathic self-organization, where cooperation becomes a mathematical consequence rather than a behavioral variable. The Zenodo record includes: Updated manuscript (unchanged content, clarified description), Revised FAQ (reflecting the clarified causality), GitHub reference implementation, and TEDx Podgorica presentation.
