 The evidence supports specific failure mechanisms and guardrails. It does not establish that Boatstack is optimal, that control-theory notation proves software quality, or that one workflow dominates every team. Those are evaluation questions, so the distribution preserves measurements, provenance, gaps, and negative results.

Neither proves the new guard's net effect. Promotion requires a paired unguarded baseline, destructive and safe corpora, real host events, bounded latency, secret-free denials, and no workflow regression.
