Humans own the goal
DP can organize information, knowledge, options, uncertainty, and risk. The human retains the goal and final choice.
Knowledge ≠ Truth
Stored or retrieved knowledge is not treated as universal truth merely because it exists in the system.
Outcome ≠ Causality
An observed outcome is not automatically attributed to the decision that came before it.
Unknowns can remain unknown
When support is insufficient, uncertainty should remain visible rather than being converted into false certainty.
Understanding can change
Past understanding is revisited as context, goals, and outcomes change.
