And yes, my "negotiation artifact" variant is an extension conceptually
to include the point of an ongoing negotiation/co-evolution of said
"boundary object".
At one time I imagined "BNA" was a recieved term from some BO adjacency,
but it appears it is my own hallucination which (continues to) work for
me, even if it doesn't have a precedent in the larger culture/literature.
In this context I suppose I posit a BNA to be "as good as it gets"...
something which lies roughly at the surface of one or another markov
blanket or perhaps at the impingement of two such during an "attempt to
communicate".
An MB in my apprehension is.an idealized artifact of agency which is not
as crisp as "boundary" would imply, and is an active participant
(vaguely a semantic transduction element) in agent-agent as well as
agent-environment communication.

a placeholder for something we both might understand
idiosyncratically to our own personal domain expertise/experience
which we then begin to beat on (with a wet noodle?) until we both are
sufficiently exhausted or agree that the thing held between us is
"good enough for who it's for" in the moment.
