E.4.PFR:3.7 - Bootstrap and stopping rule

A direct C.2.1 assertion always precedes optional PFR representation. The selected generic row or dependency-specific record cites the assertion and its exact defining or constraining ClaimGraph only when the named maintenance receiver needs that form. Neither representation can provide circular evidence for its own semantics.

After each assertion, ask: what named next action consumes more structure? If none, stop. A true stop has no pattern for the next question. When reconsideration is needed, state the condition or question and name a candidate pattern whose entry accepts it; do not model the pattern as receiver or destination.
