The readings companion's section 4.3 says what a disposition's grounds must contain varies by state (a rejection names the purpose protected, an admission or a decline states why) and that the variation is a lint rule rather than four fields. Nothing enforces it: the disposition command refuses only a blank or whitespace-only grounds field, and no lint reads the grounds against the state. Held by protocol today; the readiness statement for Phase A records it as not held by mechanism.
