That a thing can end when a parameter crosses a wall, as distinguished from ending when a part is taken away. The test is whether maintenance can keep the thing inside its window while parts are removed.

through: These components together distinguish two modes of ending: one by crossing a boundary in a condition, the other by removal of a piece, tested by whether upkeep can preserve the whole despite such removals.
