Disposition has four states in the glossary; the deferred-finding discipline gives it three different words

A terminology drift (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

  • End A: .abcd/development/brief/glossary/ledger/disposition.md:4 — "in one of four states: accepted, rejected, declined or held"
  • End B: .abcd/development/intents/disciplines/itd-2610141956319695-a-deferred-finding-is-its-own-captured.md:35 — "In a release receipt the three states are the three words of the finding's disposition, spelled exactly"

The glossary defines a disposition as one of accepted, rejected, declined or held (and, for scope conditions, survived, narrowed, falsified or untested). The deferred-finding discipline makes disposition a release-receipt field whose only words are fixed, invalid and deferred. One field name now carries a third vocabulary the glossary does not register.

Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 1071.

Grounds

  • declined: Closed in the 2026-10-27 triage (dcn-2610271112330536) as a duplicate of iss-2610262033006141. Same contradiction as iss-2610262033006141: the deferred-finding discipline and the launch receipts protocol describe one release-receipt vocabulary.
