names: the fidelity score, the allocation of authority; "constitutional" reserved for the floor and the amendment procedure; the three boxes (R8)

2026-09-27 · settled · DECISIONS.md line 5853

Maintainer ruling, landed by the phase-2 round and closing the phase-1 queue's naming entry. S_J is the fidelity score (Headline.fidelityScore, historyScore); J is the allocation of authority (Headline.AllocationOfAuthority); "constitutional" names only J's floor and its amendment procedure; the boxes are (1) fidelity versus fully updated deference, (2) lexical dominance and mediation, (3) recovery, plus the extension. The names registration freezes are the headline's declarations; everything else stays provisional. Rejected alternatives: "constitutional score"; "authority-sensitive history score".
