PSD.16:7 - Conformance Checklist

CheckPassing observation
Recognizable conflictA specific engagement result and an interaction that can defeat one of its material conditions are identified; concurrency alone is insufficient.
Truthful anchorObserved work and suspected mechanisms are distinguished; a prospective arrangement has a realization and later-test condition.
Non-isomorphic structuresOnly relevant Method, work, subject, participation/authority, model/description or cultural accounts are used; their important relations and losses remain explicit.
Real alternativesThe incumbent and a materially different arrangement are compared for the same receiving use, including support, effort and moved burden.
Bounded decisionThe chosen change or retained arrangement follows the actual remit; missing authority or specialist evidence remains a conditional return or blocker.
Intact Method and source useChanges outside a Method’s permitted variation return to Method selection; a new configuration does not inherit an old premise without qualification.
Interaction judgementAvailable observations support the claimed change in the join, participation condition or attention arrangement; unresolved limits remain explicit, and further observation is selected by its possible effect and burden. Document completion does not establish success.
Usable continuationThe next recipient can recover what changed, what remains open, the consequential follow-up constraint and the smallest reopen condition.
