MDPE.7:9 - Consequences

The pattern turns heterogeneous Music-or-Dance evidence into one bounded, accountable next-development choice. It prevents recent success, institutional visibility, performer skill, or cultural rhetoric from silently selecting Work. It also lets practitioners use expert judgement with visible evidence gaps.

The cost is a disciplined stop. Some results remain unavailable because the chooser, authority, capability, safe option, or discriminating evidence is missing. Some interesting observations are omitted because they cannot change the choice. That reduction protects attention and keeps the next Work small enough to perform and learn from.
