DOCA.8:10 - Rationale

An opportunity’s use depends on particular contributions and premises, not on everything stored beside it. Local requalification preserves this useful structure while allowing a changed need or configuration to have wider effects when the actual dependence warrants them.

Keeping the earlier return, current qualification, and later authorized action separate also prevents history from being rewritten to fit a new recommendation. The practitioner can learn from the change without pretending it had already been known or acted upon.
