E.5:7 - Consequences
| Benefits | Trade‑offs / Mitigations |
| Long‑term integrity – stops slow drift of the Core toward jargon, notation lock‑in, and hidden cycles. | Authors must run a guard‑rail checklist before submission. Mitigation: template auto‑inserts the checklist. |
| Stable yet evolvable ecosystem – Core stays timeless while Tooling & Pedagogy can iterate rapidly. | Early stage contributions may feel constrained; examples in the Pedagogical Companion show compliant paths. |
| Trust & auditability – stakeholders can verify the framework’s purity independently. | Adds overhead to governance; justified by safety and longevity. |
