A.6.B:6.3 — The “triangle decomposition” for mixed sentences

Normative rule (decomposition). A conforming boundary text SHALL decompose any mixed sentence into its actual claim jobs. Recover the predicate and modality of an observability clause before assigning its quadrant. The triangle applies when the source states all three:

  • A: admissibility predicate (A-*)
  • D: generic prescription or individual-duty claim referencing the gate (D-* → A-*)
  • E: actual observation or result referencing the gate, with carriers when needed (E-* → A-*)

Keep a prescription or individually instituted duty to produce evidence in D. Preserve an expectation or plan as such; leave the actual E result absent until its basis exists. This repairs mixed validity, authorization, compliance, audit, and security claims without manufacturing a third claim.
