GRILL's asking rules say options never recommend, but itd-99 frames every technical choice put to the thinkers as options plus a recommendation.
GRILL's asking rules say options never recommend, but itd-99 frames every technical choice put to the thinkers as options plus a recommendation.
A premise contradiction (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.
- End A:
.abcd/development/brief/02-constraints/04-naming.md:221— "options that widen and never recommend, deferral recorded as an answer" - End B:
.abcd/development/intents/drafts/itd-99-a-team-of-product-thinkers-decides-as.md:67— "proposal is framed as options + recommendation + stated costs"
04-naming records GRILL as the asking rules every abcd interview follows, including 'options that widen and never recommend'. itd-99's proposal contract frames any technical choice in the joint proposal as 'options + recommendation + stated costs', and its press release promises every proposal names 'its recommendation'. A choice put to the product thinkers cannot both carry a recommendation and follow a rule that never recommends.
Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 180.
Grounds
- declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536) as a duplicate of iss-2610262031486321. Same A end and same question (a proposal carrying a recommendation against the never-recommend rule); only the draft quoted differs.

- dcn-26102711123305362026-10-27 — The product thinker accepted on 2026-10-27 the triage of the 1301 records the 2026-10-26 consistency pass filed. The duplicates, the records a later record already settles, the ones that are no contradiction and the one already fixed are closed with each reader's reason. Every other record gets its fix as its remedy, the rulings' accepted answers included, so a drain can take it. The 45 major records left open are deferred past v0.15.1, because the brief's single-home rewrite rewrites or removes most of the passages they quote. The person ruled the major rulings one at a time; the minor rulings take their recommended answers.
