A.6.9:4.6 - Mapping witnesses are not Bridges

A lookup table, aligner model, transformation function, API, or ETL step is an implementation or evidence object. It may support the claim that a Bridge obtains or that one bounded use is suitable. It does not determine either claim by itself. Code may run A -> B while the semantic Bridge is symmetric, oriented the other way, or absent; and even an obtaining Bridge may be unsuitable for that operation’s rule or tolerance.

When the mapping witness is used to support a semantic-correspondence claim, keep it in the A.10 evidence path or optional card. Test the F.9 predicate; if a Bridge obtains and a use is proposed, state the C.2.1 bounded-use claim and recover reliance when someone will rely on that claim.
