SYSE.6:4.3 - What Changes in Practice

The engineering project stops collecting local choices and starts making a bounded, inspectable commitment across the structures that constrain several contributors.

Detailed design remains free where the decision leaves it open, and later integration or operating evidence can supersede the smallest affected decision rather than forcing either silent drift or a whole-project restart.
