R0002/2026-03-13/C001

Claim: ICD 203 defines nine tradecraft standards (Sourcing, Uncertainty, Distinction, Alternatives, Relevance, Logic, Change, Accuracy, Visual integrity). Seven-point probability scale from Remote (01-05%) through Almost certain (95-99%).

BLUF: Structurally correct but two specific labels are inaccurate. "Visual integrity" should be "effective visual information," and "Remote" is not the ICD 203 term -- the correct term is "Almost no chance." The nine standards and seven-point scale are confirmed.

Probability: Likely (55-80%) | Confidence: High

Correction needed: "Visual integrity" → "effective visual information"; "Remote" → "Almost no chance."
