Read the equation
Apply each of seven stage operators twice to x and sum the resulting outputs. This expression is a sum of self-composed stage transforms, not the sequential composition S_7∘…∘S_1. Its left side R(S) also leaves the input x implicit.

Terms & definitions
The recovered passage does not supply a separate symbol table. Read the source context for the notation used in this version; familiar letters may carry different meanings in other builds.
How it works
Read R(S) as the quantity being defined or updated by this relation.
Substitute the source-defined variables or recorded values and follow the displayed arithmetic and indexing exactly.
Use this version’s variable definitions and update order. The same symbol may be assigned a different meaning in another build.
Assumptions & limits
The source does not define the operators, addition on their outputs, or why this sum realizes self-extension. The smaller atlas version has an unclear lower index and is retained as a separate source variant.
