STR.7:4.5 - Return the design or sufficient stop

Return the supported comparison and selected next contribution. If no experiment is worthwhile, finish with the usable answer and its material limits.

If a design is proposed, the authorized chooser can approve its bounded scope or return it. Actual execution belongs to the capable participants and applicable professional methods. After execution, compare the obtained observations with the claim and decision specified, retaining deviations and limits. STR.12 supports reconsideration of the affected commitment; completing the inquiry does not cancel continuing service or recovery duties.

Reopen when the decision, attainable evidence, affected exposure, authority, burden or option value changes. Do not continue an inquiry merely because it has already consumed effort.
