E.9.DA:9 - Consequences

ConsequenceBenefitCost
DRR adequacy becomes inspectable before drafting.Pattern authors get decisions, not source summaries.Ordinary review touches only the live questions; a complete reusable evaluation touches every coordinate once.
Architecture selection becomes visible.By-value but wrong split or merge choices no longer pass as complete distribution.Some DRRs need architecture repair before drafting.
Source mutation is explicit.SoTA, standards, reviews, audits, and accepted decisions shape decisions rather than decorate them.Rationale-only sources cannot raise values.
The effective floor and required use are reproducible.Two evaluators can derive the same status without choosing an easier frame after seeing evidence.The invoking use or E.9.DA default must be named, and every below-floor required coordinate remains noncompensatory.
One bounded search tests the DRR’s frame before coordinate closure.A polished answer cannot hide an important question merely by omitting it from the DRR.The evaluator must inspect problem, practice, sources, alternative, failure/recovery, and true consumers far enough to answer that one question.
