A fidelity review that cannot run because no backend is reachable is 'deferred' in itd-53 and 'owed' in the verification matrix.
A naming conflict (severity nitpick) found by the cross-document consistency pass.
- End A:
.abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-53-review-queue-auto-drain-fidelity-gate.md:35— "No-backend behavior: entries staydeferred(not failed), so a headless run never blocks on an unreachable backend." - End B:
.abcd/development/brief/06-delivery/02-verification-matrix.md:56— "otherwise the audit stays owed until the host runs it"
itd-53 says queue entries stay deferred, not failed, when no review backend is reachable. The matrix says that when no provider connection is reached the audit stays owed until the host runs it, and other documents call this an OWED receipt. Two state names describe one condition.
Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 1066.
Grounds
- declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536) as a duplicate of iss-2610262035112905. Same A line and root cause; the matrix uses owed as the chapter does.

- 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.
