A rule carries the shape it enforces, a gate carries a verdict, the accumulator carries what a discussion concluded — none of them records what one seat has repeatedly got wrong, which is the input that makes a role document more than a job description. A DECLARED-AND-EMPTY SECTION AND AN ABSENT ONE ARE DIFFERENT STATES AND ONLY ONE OF THEM IS AN ANSWER: a seat that has measured nothing yet writes what it has, and a template seed left in place states nothing while reading as a section that exists. The section set is DERIVED from the role template on every run, so this cannot drift from the document a seat is raised from, and a document listing only virtues is decoration — a seat reading its own document is looking for the trap it fell into last time";
