A measurement amounts to a determination that a handoff of information is possible…if so, the handoff happens…without fail…as in the behavior of a particle in a potential …the trajectory is that of least action.
The limiting features that determine possibilities for handoff are clock frequency and relative bit size ….scale (gear mesh model…pitch of the teeth of a gear). There is some range of scale that limits handoff. Also some range of frequency that limits through a fading out of memory as info is held for handoff to different clock domain…the two may be the same thing. Either way info is lost to the larger environment of the domains.
