Dead states

Concept a word Carolverse uses with a precise meaning

๐Ÿ“–What it means

Closed, discarded and redirected. Work in a dead state stays dead: only the operator, or an explicit verdict, revives it. The rule exists so that automated machinery can never quietly resurrect work a human decided was finished.

โš–๏ธWhat it is NOT

The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.

Not: Blocked

Blocked is terminal but revivable; the dead states need an operator or a verdict.
