Consistency Checking

Evaluate pairwise value consistency and reduce the solution space by removing logically, empirically, or normatively inconsistent combinations.

Stages

Stage 1: Consistency Pair Evaluation

Evaluate all pairwise combinations of parameter values using consistency-pair-evaluation SOP. Classify each pair as consistent, inconsistent (logical), inconsistent (empirical), or inconsistent (normative).

Stage 2: Solution Space Reduction

Apply CCA reduction rules via solution-space-reduction SOP. Remove all configurations containing at least one inconsistent pair. Report reduction ratio.

Minimum Yield

Metric	Floor
Inconsistent combinations identified and removed	≥50%
Consistency types classified	all 3 (logical/empirical/normative)
