A.19.SOURCE-SET-SPACE-SUBSTRATE:0.1 - What goes wrong if missed

If this pattern is missed, authors usually collapse several different things into one vague “space” or one vague “projection”:

  • the declared source set disappears behind bare words such as front, archive, palette, or portfolio;
  • SearchSpaceRef and OutcomeSpaceRef never become explicit, or SpaceRefRelationKind never becomes explicit, so one line silently hides whether search and outcome use one declared space twice or two different declared spaces;
  • DescriptorMapRef or DistanceDefRef gets mistaken for the space itself rather than one representation or metric qualifier;
  • publication metadata in G.5 or G.10 starts standing in for substrate semantics;
  • and distortion, uncertainty, or error is either hidden or treated as if every non-trivial case were only one bridge-loss story.

The result looks tidy, but the reader cannot tell what is being searched, what is being evaluated, what is only being published, and where uncertainty actually enters.
