ECO.Preface:6 - Common failures and useful returns

Failure in workContribution to recover
A model’s optimum cannot be obtained at its assumed prices.ECO.1 restores the calculation’s exchange and access basis.
More explanation produces no commitment.ECO.4 separates understanding, disagreement and missing means; ECO.3 can change the proposal.
A supplier’s apparently cheap offer conceals dedicated investment exposure.ECO.6 compares feasible adaptation arrangements and outside options.
Local allocations fit individually but violate the common constraint.ECO.7 joins the resource account to effective rules; ECO.8 addresses their wider relation.
A rule is copied while the capability that made it work is absent.ECO.9 restores the practice and its transmission through the existing development methods.
Lower unit resource use is reported as a guaranteed total saving.ECO.10 compares the demand response against the relevant counterfactual.

Use these returns when the failure occurs. They are not a required audit before every ordinary action.
