In the context of the model, the icosahedron is the unique Platonic solid generated by the dynamic constant δ = √5 (golden ratio geometry). It represents the topology that maximizes spherical approximation and volumetric efficiency in a discrete space. The vertex count (12) is derived from structural constants: N_v = w · (1 + δ^2) = 2 · (1 + 5) = 12.
