E.21:5.1 - Bias-Annotation

E.21 resists Goodhart-style quality substitution: a high value is not produced by length, source count, approval state, checklist closure, or elegant phrasing when the required coordinate evidence is absent. It also blocks semio-bias by checking whether the evaluated pattern leads with its own EntityOfConcern and user-facing action rather than with description, publication, source, review, or repair apparatus.
