C.40.PC:9 - Consequences

The practitioner can distinguish what might be worth addressing from what could be supplied. A useful hypothesis can survive without invented evidence, and a supplier lead can be rejected before it consumes a development programme or procurement budget. Later direction construction has an inspectable premise rather than a slogan.

The cost is receiver and evidence inquiry. Different people may value the proposed change differently, and the available evidence may justify only a narrower problem or an unanswered question. This pattern makes those limits visible; it does not settle domain truth, comparative value, or authority by naming an opportunity.
