A.16.2:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them

  • Shame-driven concealment. Teams hide the retreat. Publish the move.
  • Silent downgrade. The publication loses closure, a selected route, a passed endpoint test, publication availability, or current use, but no one updates the exact affected claim.
  • Retreat as erasure. Earlier witnesses disappear even though they remain valid.
  • Respecify as silent repair. respecify is used to hide a real epistemic precision restoration that belongs to later repair governing patterns.
  • Silent branch disappearance. A branch stops mattering, but no retirement or supersession note is published.
