| In current practice, rule definitions, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:semantic|semantic]] assumptions, and execution behaviour are frequently tightly coupled. Rules may encode meaning implicitly, depend on undocumented contextual assumptions, or produce derived facts without explicit linkage to the definitions, versions, parameters, or interpretive context that governed the evaluation. | In current practice, rule definitions, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:semantic|semantic]] assumptions, and execution behavior are frequently tightly coupled.

| As rules evolve in response to regulatory change, policy updates, or analytical refinement, this coupling undermines comparability, auditability, reproducibility, and long-term consistency across systems and reporting periods. | As rules evolve in response to regulatory change, policy updates, or analytical refinement, this coupling undermines comparability, auditability, reproducibility, and long-term consistency across systems and reporting periods. |
