I agree that it is 'out-of-equilbrium' in a long-run sense which is
determined by factors outside the accounting identity, i.e. the limits
of accumulated credit/debt.

No, I can't see how this is the case or that is even relevant since we
are dealing with aggregates in the identity. But for sake of argument
I'm assuming perfect proportionality between labour-value and price. It
does not change the argument and the problems with the
'Vol.1'-formulations persist.

I have no objections to that.
