A.21:4.10 - Publication, rationale, and reuse

The ordinary one-time result needs the fields in section 4.1 and a short rationale. It does not require a Multi-View Publication Kit (MVPK) face, AssuranceLane, evidence bundle, Bridge apparatus, cache key, or equivalence witness.

When publication is current, E.24.PUB defines the publication occurrence, form, carrier, audience, bounded use, and availability. Use E.17 when the result needs a source-backed reader face and return to source. A publication mode changes only that form; it neither selects a profile nor changes the required check set or aggregate. The published minimum is the result identity, decision subject, profile application, check-application refs, decision, action consequence, scope, window, and recheck condition. Crossing, evidence, regulation, safety, and assurance fields appear only when the corresponding claim is current.

A DecisionLog is an optional audit or reuse record that cites one or more GateDecisionResult values. It may retain source outcomes, mappings, rationale, evidence refs, and change history; it neither creates nor changes the decision.

Require an equivalence witness only when reuse, cacheability, or a stability interval is claimed. That witness covers every input whose equality is needed for the claimed reuse. A changed profile edition, required set, checked subject, criterion, case, source result, mapping, scope, or window defeats reuse and requires another decision.
