PSD.14:10 - Rationale

The decision-support remainder is not generic monitoring or generic source refresh. It connects this recommendation’s consequences, assumptions, alternatives, models, authority and problem boundary to a feasible observation-and-interpretation arrangement and a current advice return.

This connection must be designed before it is relied on, but design and use need not form a universal lifecycle. One changed observation can open the pattern directly. A proposal can stop at an infeasible observation condition; a later source can leave the answer unchanged; a changed boundary can require formulation work without first rerunning every calculation.

Locality is semantic rather than file-based. A shared file does not make all claims dependent, and separate documents do not make actually coupled claims independent. The stopping point is the last receiving question whose answer can change.
