What this rule means
CAIN-42 must always satisfy: an assertion answering 'WHAT I OBSERVED' lands in exactly that answer. It is one of 253 invariants checked for CAIN-42 Evolution 23 -- Governed Meta-Intelligence Fabric. An invariant is a rule the system may never break, whatever an agent or attacker does; the test suite tries to break it across many scenarios and records the result.
