C.19:5.1 - System grounding

A product-search or architecture-search team can keep several family regions alive even after one line looks best locally. keep_frontier under frontier_sweeper_v3 is warranted while those regions’ prospective contribution and commitments fit the pool policy. Graduation is reconsidered when graduation_condition_v3 is satisfied; continued exploration or retention is reconsidered when its own basis changes. The team need not choose between premature exploitation and indefinite funded search.

C.19:5.2 - Episteme grounding

A SoTA pack often compares traditions that stay non-dominated for different reasons: one clears current evidence quality, one keeps broader transfer value, one preserves family coverage. The admissible C.19 result is then often keep_frontier or narrow_to_subset, not one fake scalar champion.

C.19:5.3 - Collective and contextual grounding

A regional or stakeholder-diverse pool may have to sunset one line while keeping others alive to preserve coverage, fairness quotas, or contextual fit. Use C.19 to state and test that pool-treatment decision only while the question is still about the live set. Once the result must become one local choice, one enactment plan, or one declared selected set, apply the pattern that defines and tests that result.
