Gates and evidence

All gates and core evidence of the parent level (L4 — Feature/component) apply unchanged. Declaring this sub-level adds the distinct check:

  • Changed files spanning ≥2 repos, a submodule pointer commit, and a per-repo assay pass

A run that fails the sub-level check may still be reported at the plain parent-level grain if the parent's evidence holds — sub-level claims are strictly additive.

L4.2 has wider span than L4.1 but lower architectural risk — sub-levels within a level are peer variants ordered by typical adoption, not strictly increasing risk.
