Text equivalent

A record enters with FINDING, ASSUMPTIONS and REGIME. SR1 strikes it without ranking if its FINDING with the TFK derives a contradiction. SR2 lets it stand while its derivation is valid and nothing standing contradicts it. On a contradiction, SR3 applies the regime test; SR7 protects an L derivation from an M contradiction, recording a named gap when a(r) is above 0 or, when a(r) is 0, a DOMAIN finding declared by a human. Otherwise SR4 computes distance and SR5 keeps the closer record; equal distance opens an audit block, and SR6 opens one when independent contradictions reach N_x. The audit block ends in a decision item (4.4, 4.1.5).
