ArXi:2603.10065v1 Announce Type: cross The Epistemic -Point Filter (ESPF) was designed around a single epistemological commitment: be quick to embrace ignorance and slow to assert certainty. This paper proves that this commitment has a precise mathematical form and that the ESPF is the unique optimal filter implementing it within the class of epistemically admissible evidence-only filters. The ESPF synthesizes two complementary principles acting at different phases of the recursion.
