What is it about?
This manuscript is an early and incomplete draft of research that was subsequently developed, revised, and published in IET Quantum Communication under the title *Generalised probabilistic theories in a new light*. It is retained here for historical reference and does not represent the final formulation of the theory. Readers interested in the developed mathematical framework and its conclusions should consult the published article: https://doi.org/10.1049/qtc2.12045

Why is it important?
This early manuscript documents an intermediate stage in the development of the research. Its principal value is historical: it provides a record of how the ideas evolved before their subsequent refinement and publication. For the completed formulation, mathematical results, and scientific conclusions, readers should refer to the peer-reviewed article in IET Quantum Communication.
Perspectives
This manuscript represents an early stage in my investigation of the foundations of quantum mechanics. The questions that motivated it, particularly those surrounding the interpretation of quantum mechanics and the relationship between probability and physical theory, remained central to my subsequent research. The ideas underwent substantial development before appearing in my published paper, *Generalised probabilistic theories in a new light*, in IET Quantum Communication. I encourage readers to consult that publication for the more complete formulation.
