Keep conflicting facts visible

Two equally preferred sources with different values produce a contested result, retain both evidence references and provide an informational steward route. A later spreadsheet never wins merely because it arrived last. Missing or overlapping authority does not create a grant.

Use distinct responsibilities

• Accountability for values is separate from the referenced definition owner.
• Stewardship duties do not grant write access.
• Source priority and current submission rights are separate records.
• Immutable corrections, explicit transfer terms and historical query cuts retain provenance.

Validated scope

53 reference tests and three synthetic new-Dimension scenarios passed. Native V3 checks the envelope; companion validation is mandatory. This is an original companion contract associated with Ownership / Stewardship, not a ControlRecord subtype. No authentication, durable concurrency, real connector, definition governance, federation, legal validity or full parent conformance is claimed.
