  "abstract": "Engineers designing confined superconducting devices—thin-film resonators, vortex-based flux devices, and cavity-coupled qubits—routinely attribute device performance to material-specific mechanisms, yet a purely geometric contribution is rarely quantified first, so geometric and material effects are confounded from the outset. The gap this paper addresses is methodological: no existing analysis isolates how much of confined-superconductor phenomenology follows from geometry alone, with no pairing, band-structure, or pinning input. We construct such a \"G-only\" baseline, retaining only geometric lengths, the penetration depth λ_L, and the flux quantum Φ₀, and we anchor it in the QNFO Geometric Unification Framework and Superconductivity Quadrangle, whose Geometry axis we isolate. With fully shown arithmetic under stated assumptions we compute: a thin-film screening length Λ = 400 nm; a confinement parameter Γ = 0.40 for a representative 1.0 mum disk; a model vortex-entry threshold H₀^(G) = 6.589×10^-4 T at R = 1.0 mum scaling as R^-2; a flux-dome radius b = 62.996 mum at μ₀ H_a = 0.025 T for a 100 mum disk with vortex count N ≈ 3.794×10⁵; and a coherence phase-space product ωτ = 3.14×10⁶ for an assumed τ = 1.0×10^-4 s at 5 GHz. The baseline fixes geometry-dependent normalisations but cannot predict material-dependent quantities such as critical temperature. We state explicit falsification conditions and identify the measurements that would test or refute the baseline.",
