The phase negotiator drafts phases, milestones and phase acceptance, but the shipped glossary intent retired phases and milestones
A premise contradiction (severity major) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

.abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-2609211913453478-one-page-in-the-glossary-maps-abcd-s.md:55— "Phases and milestones are retired; sequencing is dependencies plus the lifecycle shelves"
itd-41's whole deliverable is a proposed ordered set of phases, each with an Expectation, a Milestone and a Phase Acceptance section (authored per adr-9). itd-2609211913453478 rules that phases and milestones are retired, sequencing is dependencies plus the lifecycle shelves, and adr-9 is superseded. A negotiator for a retired concept cannot be built against the current vocabulary, so both records cannot stand.
Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 1193.

- 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.
