The glossary forbids calling a reading's position a step; itd-143 calls the widening reading the Step 2 reading

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

  • End A: .abcd/development/brief/glossary/ledger/position.md:25 — "Do not call a position a phase (the retired sequencing unit) or a step (a landable piece of a spec); those are delivery vocabulary."
  • End B: .abcd/development/intents/drafts/itd-143-the-brief-gains-a-framing-chapter-under.md:68 — "dropping the Step 2 reading would forfeit the position of greatest exposure"

The position entry says a position is never a step, which is a landable piece of a spec. itd-143 names the widening reading the Step 2 reading in the same sentence that speaks of its position.

Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 1076.
