D.4:2.2 - Retain the decision basis when the work needs it

Use an EthicalMediationDecisionUse account when another participant needs to inspect, compare, authorize or later revise the result. The necessary content can remain in the existing answer or decision record. The following form groups that content; use only the optional detail needed for this decision:

EthicalMediationDecisionUse:
  conflictDescriptionRef: exact C.2.1 U.Episteme identified through D.3
  affectedEntityOfConcernRef
  affectedSystemRefs?
  valueFrameEditionRefs

  decisionOrRepairSystemRefs?: independently admitted U.System refs
  localSystemRoleKindRefs?: exact local U.Kind refs

  intendedAssignmentRequirementRefs?: prospective requirement content; creates no assignment occurrence
  performedWorkRows?:
    - performerSystemRef: exact U.System
      workOccurrenceRef: exact dated U.Work
      assignmentSpeciesRef?: exact directly declared species under U.SystemRoleAssignment, when assignment-bound attribution is claimed
      assignmentOccurrenceRef?: obtaining occurrence of that species with actual participant values, applicability, and extent covering the Work
      f6AttributionRef?: exact performedUnderAssignment occurrence, for that attribution
      holderEquality?: performerSystemRef = assignmentOccurrenceRef.HolderSystemSlot, for that attribution

The record names the current ethical use of the conflict: mediate, refuse, continue under explicit residual, demand evidence, ask a causal question, ask for assurance, return to architecture, or make a bounded decision.

Name the affected EntityOfConcern and any affected Systems, the value-frame editions, the decision question and options, and the intended decision or Work use. Add ClaimScope and a qualification window when they delimit that use. State the proposed mediation or refusal and any accepted residuals. If evidence, causal adequacy, assurance, architecture residuals, responsibility, permission, or actual Work remains unresolved, return only that question to the pattern that defines it. These values delimit the mediation; a generic context field does not.
