# 0000 — <Title stated as an assertion, not a topic>

Status: proposed, <YYYY-MM-DD>

<Optional relationship paragraph: what earlier decisions this amends or
supersedes, and what it explicitly does not touch. If it supersedes a
decision whose contract still lives in code, absorb that contract into a
section here before deleting the predecessor.>

## Context

<The tension that forced a decision: what went wrong, what it cost, or what
could not proceed. Facts, not advocacy.>

## Decision

**<The rule, in one bolded sentence.>**

<Elaboration: sub-decisions as a numbered list if there are several, and the
boundary of the decision — what it deliberately leaves undecided.>

## Consequences

- <What becomes true, including honest negatives: what now exists, what
  still does not, and what got harder.>
- <What future work this constrains or unblocks.>
