E.24.UK:4.5 - Structural Location Rule

A U.* spelling in a pattern title, host filename, monolith heading, or ToC row is stronger than a prose occurrence. Structural locations orient readers to the governed object.

Use this rule:

  • Prose occurrence: recover the local claim, the rule that defines or tests it, and that rule’s PatternID locator.
  • Table row or record field: recover whether it is one SlotSpec, one assertion or description field, one reusable-form element, or an already governed object.
  • Heading: retain U.* only when the section’s primary EntityOfConcern is that object or the heading directly references an already admitted U-kind.
  • Pattern title or host filename: retain U.* only when the pattern’s primary EntityOfConcern is that root or dependent U-kind.
  • ToC row: retain U.* only when the row points to the passage that carries the accepted settlement; otherwise name the direct governed object or repair the wording with E.10.

Do not keep a false U.* structural name for memory or search convenience. Use a Plain label, local heading, Name Card, Concept-Set row, relation name, record field, or quoted source wording when that is the actual object.
