E.18:5.7 - S7 - Selector semantics (G.5) and parity harness (G.9)
E.18 keeps set-return, archive preservation, and comparator refs visible along the path. It does not define selector, archive, dominance, or comparator semantics; those remain with A.19.SelectorMechanism, C.18, C.19, G.5, G.9, and G.11 for current selector or comparator cases.
- Selectors return sets. Default DominanceRegime is
ParetoOnly; IlluminationSummary (telemetry summary) and any coverage and regret telemetry quantities are report-only telemetry (reported), excluded from dominance unless a CAL policy promotes them as declared dominance inputs (policy-id in SCR).
If PortfolioMode=Archive, a QD archive can be returned; when generation is in scope, pairs {environment, method} are managed under declared EnvironmentValidityRegion and TransferRulesRef; parity records and PathSliceId are pinned on publication. For current selector, archive, pool, selected-set result-declaration, comparator, or refresh claims, apply the definitions and tests in A.19.SelectorMechanism, C.18, C.19, G.5, G.9, and G.11. For actual publication, use E.17 for a source-backed face and return to source and E.24.PUB for the occurrence, form, carrier, audience, bounded use, and availability.
