RMP.6:4.8 - Preserve a useful answer for its receiver

Return the claim, the selected credibility question and the conclusion that can now be used. Carry the source, limitation or reason that changes the receiving decision. Reuse the existing research account; do not copy an adequate test report into a new certificate.

Where the receiver lacks access to decisive material, distinguish its public answer from an examination available only to a permitted critic. A lost record, inaccessible original or unperformed test cannot be recovered by stronger wording. Keep that limit without erasing the bounded contribution that remains.
