C.32.ACS:10 - Rationale

Architecture optimization is meaningful only after the criteria are named. ACS supplies that middle object: not a generic quality catalogue, not a starter pack, not a Q-Bundle, not an eval program, and not a decision, but a project criteria set that can guide synthesis, residual reduction, and repeated improvement.

The pattern stays holonic by allowing starter heads to recur across holon families while requiring bearer and scale rebinding. It stays action-facing by limiting optimization indicators and keeping non-optimized criteria rows as guardrails.
