#G.9:0.1 — What goes wrong if missed

Preface node heading:g-9-0-1-what-goes-wrong-if-missed:105442

#What this page is

This is generated FPF reference text from the specification preface or supporting sections. It helps interpret FPF; it is not FPF Reference product documentation.

#Methodology

Use it to understand how the specification wants to be read, then return to a route, pattern, or work packet for active work. Cite generated IDs only when the wording changes the task decision.

#Content

• benchmark numbers mix different windows, baselines, or comparator editions and still pretend to be comparable
• reuse across distinct source-local meanings, a reference-plane crossing, or a normalization mapping stays hidden until a disagreement appears downstream
• parity flattens a partial order into one scalar winner and silently changes what the comparison means
