Method RECORD
States the claim and its evidence
Writing the judgment down: what was concluded, on what evidence, by which method. The disagreements go in too.
RECORD is the method that writes the assessment down. It states the claim as assessed, the evidence that bore on it, and the method that produced it — including the version of that method and the panel of models behind it.
What separates a Trust Object from a log line is that the disagreement is written down too. Evidence that pointed the other way is part of the record, not an omission from it.
