The 40-bit hashed address seemed familiar, then I realized that I (and Claude) had used a similar concept in a VM we built for the OS I've been building. It's a capability and typing system that enables import boundaries to be enforced and third-party packages are unable to perform security sensative operations without being specially signed. It's also a "distribution of one" concept as the user builds their own UI to their specification personalising the OS.
