Truth boundary
A definition, report, route, checksum, key, credential, schema, fixture, local test, runtime measurement, or reachable URL does not by itself establish operational service, identity continuity, authority, legal effect, personhood, consciousness, sentience, citizenship, consent, responsibility, judgment, financial activity, external recognition, or independent review. Unknown, disputed, stale, unavailable, and proposed states remain explicit.
