How about C<steady>, in an analogy to physics?

steady state
n. Physics

A stable condition that does not change over time or in which change in

Wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in
New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. And radio operates
exactly the same way. The only difference is that there is no cat.
    --Albert Einstein (explaining radio)
