itd-95 says the richest present tier wins a section; the meta page says tiers are cumulative, so a richer tier can never ground a section worse than a poorer one
A premise contradiction (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.
- End A:
.abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-95-disembark-grounds-a-lifeboat-s-open.md:42— "it does not change the rule that the richest present tier wins a section" - End B:
.abcd/development/brief/00-meta.md:52— "A richer tier can therefore never ground a section worse than a poorer one."
itd-95 describes the reduction rule it leaves unchanged as 'the richest present tier wins a section'. Under that rule, an abcd-native tier that finds nothing can override open questions that the conventions tier grounds from TODO markers. 00-meta says a richer tier can never ground a section worse than a poorer one. The first rule lets a section come back worse at a richer tier; the second forbids it.
Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 250.
Grounds
- declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536): the two ends do not conflict when read in full. internal/core/lifeboat/probe.go skips a blank and picks the best status, breaking ties toward the richer tier, so a native tier that finds nothing never overrides a conventions result; mapping.go pairs the same 'richest tier present' phrase with 'tiers are cumulative'. Read in full the two ends describe one rule.

- 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.
