E.9.DA:4.4a - Result-row discipline and calibration

Use the question-to-ground and result-acceptance operation in E.22:4.3 within this evaluation.

A complete reusable E.9.DA coordinate result uses this table shape. An ordinary bounded review may use the coordinates as probes and return substantive findings or repaired text without creating the table:

Coordinate	Value	ShortRationale	EvidenceLocus
`<E.9.DA coordinate>`	`<0..5; leave unassigned while required evidence is missing or unchecked>`	`<assigned-value basis and the applicable adjacent-value rationale below>`	`<DRR section, row, alternative, source-use row, selected-locus row, accepted-decision row, architecture decision, or missing locus named by value>`

For values 1..4, explain why the lower adjacent value would understate the evidence and the higher adjacent value would overstate it. For 0, explain why 1 would overstate the evidence and what would raise the value or reopen it. For 5, explain why 4 would understate the evidence and what would lower the value or reopen it.

A prose summary, heading checklist, two-column coordinate-and-value table, or table without an EvidenceLocus is not a complete reusable coordinate result. It may still be a valid ordinary bounded review when it precisely states the checked DRR, required use and source, effective floor, substantive finding, repaired text or clean unchanged result, first action, and stop or reopen condition. When required evidence is missing or unchecked, identify the gap and leave the affected value unestablished until the needed check is completed. Assign a lower value only when checked content shows the inadequacy specified by that coordinate’s value rule; for example, an absent required decision in the DRR can justify a low value. An answer-changing omitted question requires reassessment of each dependent coordinate under that same rule; it is not an extra coordinate or a compensable checklist item.

Common calibration points:

Coordinate family	`3`	`4`	`5`
Decision question and selected answer	The decision can guide limited drafting, but unsettled or ambiguous material remains visible.	The selected answer and outside questions are directly recoverable for declared authoring use.	The decision is reinforced across question, alternatives, consequences, selected loci, and first drafting action without hidden unsettled branches.
Source-use and inheritance	Sources or inherited decisions are relevant, but payload mutation or rejection is compact or incomplete.	Source-use relation, adopted payload, rejected payload, currentness, and selected-locus obligation are explicit.	Source distinctions are replayable across selected answer, cases, boundaries, and first drafting action.
Selected-locus and architecture closure	Loci are named, but some obligation, non-obligation, split, architecture choice, ordinary reference relation, or phrase apparatus remains generic.	Loci are named by value and content obligations are closed for declared use without precision-restoration defects or architecture-memo prose in the future pattern body.	The split, merge, concrete pattern or relation for each outside claim or boundary, and lost-structure or source-use distinctions are replayable across cases and consequences while product prose remains positive-subject first.
Drafting actionability	A skilled author can proceed, but must infer some governed `EntityOfConcern`, first move, selected-locus relation/decision, user-facing action, boundary disposition, or reference/architecture disposition from scattered material.	The DRR directly exposes the governed `EntityOfConcern`, first substantive drafting move, exact selected-locus relation or decision, user-facing action, and only necessary boundary/reference pointers as positive subject kind and action guidance; ordinary references remain references, apparatus stays out of pattern prose, and an evaluation row is neither future method nor work.	Drafting can proceed across heterogeneous selected loci without inventing decisions, final prose, local negative catalogues, reference boilerplate, phrase apparatus, architecture-memo leakage, method, or work.
