Kind: constraint
Layer: Execution Core
Record: architecture:section-lifetime-divergence
Severity: recommended
Scope: surface, section
Canonical: Ontology
A rule or precondition that a file states a default lifetime and each section declares only the axes on which it differs, since the narrower unit is the more constrained one.
Listed in Architecture principles, after Independent Lifetime Axes and before Write Scope and Read Population.
