KCAE.ENCOUNTER:4.2 - Project an event without erasing the unknown distinction

An event projection carries only the allowed context needed to open inquiry: receiving work, observed result or contrast, the relevant passage or value, source/time identity and available case facts. Preserve the original observation separately from a proposed interpretation. “Three duplicate rows were removed by a senior analyst after a successful export” is evidence of an episode; “workers are too slow” is a hypothesis.

Use deterministic validation for payload shape, identifiers, dates and permissions. Use semantic assessment for the relationship between the event and a possible question. If a projection omits the very compensation that raises the question, improve that projection or obtain the fuller authorized episode. Do not compensate with a more confident classifier on the same insufficient fields.

Minimize private data before any transfer and keep a source return under appropriate access. A public service may receive “repeated duplicate reconciliation after a successful export” while customer identifiers and row contents stay local. If an essential distinction cannot be shared, use a qualified local reader or return a limitation.
