It appears that none have much to say on the matter
If you truly wish to facilitate discussion on this topic it would be helpful to develop your statements further. One sentence gives the reader very little to consider. A number of questions come to mind that for myself would serve to provide enough information for actual discussion.
Example:
- In what context are you using the term entelechy?
- Within the framework of Aristotle's \\"Metaphysics\\"?
- If so, what is the nature of the proposed relationship?
- As an incident of First cause in matter?
- As a state of pure entelechy (god) or a shared state?
- The initial form of the soul?
- A state of entelechy(actuality) and dynamis(potentiality) that is static?
- To what are we relating this bounded entelechy?(matter, form, being?)
- Do we stick to Aristotle's view that Actuality is the highest determinations of being?
- Plato's view that ideas are the highest determination?
- Some arbitrary concept?
- Do we take in account Giordano Bruno's concept of the Bonding agent as being predisposed to bond by it's order, measure, and type?
Do we instead recognize that entelechy and metaphysics in general provides no means to determine conclusions? Shouldn't we consider that these concepts lie within the Noumenal realm, and any conclusions or questions on matters are ultimately worthless as they lack any means to provide empiracal data?

--dissolution (as in disintigration and/or dispersion to end the bond) would seem to be the most achievable solution then.
In this case we have no point of reference, and we can determine in the same manner that dissolution(as in disintegration and/or dispersion to end the bond) is actually the most difficult solution to achieve. With no method or logic to follow we determine that greatest chance of success is dissipation, coagualtion , distillation, conflagration, fusion, fission, eating Chocolate Ice Cream, contemplation, evaporation, digestion, or any other random idea we choose to assign.
