decide(content): resolve Q-095 as D-193 Lattice Commission
Canonical long-form of the Concord Assembly's regulatory authority is "the Lattice Commission". Short form "the Commission" remains standard in-prose. Drift forms "Concord Commission" and "Assembly Commission" are deprecated. Resolves Q-095 (#876). Rationale: naming after the regulated domain (Lattice) rather than the parent Assembly mirrors real-world regulators (FDA, FAA, NRC) and disambiguates from the multiple other "Concord"-prefixed references in the wiki. The Commission's jurisdiction is Lattice-scoped, not Concord-scoped — it has no authority in Compact member systems. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

### D-193: Lattice Commission — canonical long-form of the Commission
|
||||
- **Date:** 2026-04-21
|
||||
- **Decision:** The Concord Assembly's regulatory authority is formally named **"the Lattice Commission"**. In-prose short form remains "the Commission" (unambiguous in context). Drift forms that appeared in earlier copy reviews — "Concord Commission" and "Assembly Commission" — are **non-canonical** and must be corrected wherever they appear. The long-form is required for institutional POI signage, tractus fee legal text, wiki page headers, and any formal/legal context.
|
||||
- **Rationale:** The Commission's regulated domain — implant hardware, medical-grade replacements, pharmaceutical production, and safety-critical manufactured goods that feed the Lattice — is what authorizes and scopes its jurisdiction. Naming it after the regulated domain (rather than the parent Assembly) mirrors how real-world regulatory bodies are often named by what they regulate (FDA, FAA, NRC) rather than by their chartering body. It also disambiguates from "Concord" which otherwise appears in the Concord Assembly itself, the Concord's member systems, etc. The Commission has no authority in Compact member systems — its identity is Lattice-scoped, not Concord-scoped.
|
||||
- **Affects:** Wiki content (all `wiki/factions/`, `wiki/technology/`, `wiki/corporations/` pages that reference the Commission), marker POI naming (e.g. `"Lattice Commission — Sirius Office"`), formal legal text in tractus fee documentation, institutional signage, institution templates in `wiki/_templates/`, dialogue pools, copy guides.
|
||||
- **Resolves:** [Q-095](questions-content.md#q-095-commission-formal-name--authoritative-designation)
|
||||
- **Raised by:** Copy review (Sprint 35, PR #127); resolved by Jeroen on 2026-04-21
|
||||
- **Dissent:** None.

### Q-095: Commission formal name — authoritative designation
|
||||
- **Status:** Open
|
||||
- **Status:** Resolved — see [D-193](content.md#d-193-lattice-commission--canonical-long-form-of-the-commission) (2026-04-21)
|
||||
- **Resolution:** Canonical long-form is **"the Lattice Commission"**. Short form "the Commission" remains standard in-prose. "Concord Commission" and "Assembly Commission" drift forms are non-canonical.
|
||||
- **Question:** What is the full formal name of the Concord Assembly's regulatory authority? In-prose use is "the Commission", but several drift forms have appeared in copy reviews ("Concord Commission", "Assembly Commission", "Lattice Commission"). A canonical long-form is needed for formal/legal contexts, institutional signage, and wiki headers.
|
||||
- **Context:** The Commission certifies implant hardware, medical equipment, pharmaceutical production, and safety-critical manufactured goods under tractus-denominated fees. It has no authority in Compact member systems. Current glossary guidance is to use "the Commission" until the full name is resolved, but authors writing institutional POIs and formal documents need a decision.
|
||||
- **Affects:** Wiki content, marker POI naming (e.g. `"Commission — Sirius Office"`), formal legal text in tractus fee documentation, institutional signage.

When in doubt about where a question belongs: if it constrains **how we build**, it's architecture. If it defines **what the player observes or knows**, it's perception. If it defines **narrative, NPCs, dialogue, or setting**, it's content. If it defines **what we ship or how big it is**, it's scope.
