The Gaussian isn't treated as fundamental in Gaussoherence. The Fisher heat kernel is deeper with the Gaussian appearing as its local normal-coordinate form; the short-time asymptotic of diffusion on the Fisher. Gaussian smoothing is a coordinate shadow of Fisher geometry, not the mechanism itself.

Fisher width reinforces this. Just as Fisher width replaces Euclidean Gaussian width with a complexity measure built from the Fisher metric, the Fisher heat kernel replaces Euclidean diffusion with dynamics governed by distinguishability. Both constructions are reparameterizationinvariant and depend

on the intrinsic geometry encoded by the Fisher. The quantum-to-classical transition is controlled by Fisher spectral structure. High-distinction modes contract rapidly under the Fisher heat flow while Fisher-smooth modes survive coarse-graining; Gaussian asymptotic shadow is a classical description
