Proof Burden Default / 举证负荷违约

Proof Burden Default is the event that fires or becomes default-ready when a proof burden was left unassigned, falsely cleaned, overdrawn, captured, or assigned to a holder who cannot produce the proof when challenged.

The event is not a flavor reveal. It must suspend, reverse, poison, capture, harden, or make costlier a route that previously depended on proof.

Event pressure

This event can fire when a row in 举证负荷案卷 enters one of these states:

• no current burden holder is named after a proof-based relief;
• the holder is captured, hostile, missing, overdrawn, unpaid, silenced, or contradicted;
• a sponsor, editor, archive, public witness, or proxy authority was treated as proof without carrying the proof duty;
• a required checksum, original copy, witness oath, consent/refusal boundary, chain receipt, public update, or lawful seal cannot be produced;
• the player chooses immediate silence or clean-looking relief without assigning cost;
• a challenger produces a countercopy before the holder answers.

This event must not fire from a fixed numbered turn. It fires from unresolved proof burden state.

Default causes

Cause	What failed	Required mutation
unassigned_burden	no one can answer the proof challenge	affected route becomes default_ready, costlier, or recovery_only
holder_overdrawn	the assigned holder carries too much proof/consent/route risk	holder becomes overdrawn, hostile, captured, or demands relief
proof_not_produced	original, checksum, oath, receipt, consent row, or public update is missing	prior relief is suspended or challenged
authority_as_proof	seal, sponsor money, edit checksum, or public applause is mistaken for subject proof	consent debt, public distrust, or false ownership rises
countercopy_first	rival claimant narrates or files before the holder answers	false owner hardens or claimant gains presumption
protection_absent	witness/carrier/subject was used without protection	witness becomes hostile, captured, missed, or public-only
burden_sold_cleanly	sponsor or settlement buys proof duty without scar	route is captured, sponsor-only, or public trust falls

Event resolution families

Relief suspended

The route does not disappear, but its prior benefit cannot be used cleanly until burden is reassigned.

Expected effects:

• route_asset_after = costlier or recovery_only;
• proof_legibility drops;
• future_recovery_cost, archive_debt, or inspection_heat rises.

Burden reversed

The challenger gains a presumption because the holder cannot answer.

Expected effects:

• rival claimant becomes priority claimant, false owner, lawful-only gate, or public narrator;
• false_owner_pressure or contract_capture rises;
• at least one prior relief becomes narrower or hostile.

Holder turns into liability

The holder survives but becomes overdrawn, hostile, captured, or public-only.

Expected effects:

• follower/handler state changes;
• future use of that holder requires protection, payment, apology, legal cover, or rescue;
• handler_burden, public_exposure, fan_oxygen_resentment, or bureau_favor_debt rises.

Proof becomes split-canon

The proof remains available but no longer decides reality by itself.

Expected effects:

• source_ambiguity or broadcast_reality_drift rises;
• a later hearing must choose between public, lawful, editor, sponsor, or subject burden;
• clean route use is blocked.

Recovery-only route

The game preserves a future path, but only through visible sacrifice.

Expected effects:

• future route requires new proof, stronger holder, public counterproof, lawful escrow, apology/refund, or sacrifice;
• future_recovery_cost rises;
• prior relief is remembered rather than retconned.

Required deltas

Every fired event must mutate at least three counters or durable states. At least one mutation must explain what becomes worse; if any relief remains, another mutation must record its cost.

Suggested deltas:

event_id: storyteller.event.proof_burden_default.v1
cause: unassigned_burden | holder_overdrawn | proof_not_produced | authority_as_proof | countercopy_first | protection_absent | burden_sold_cleanly
route_asset_before: protected | route_asset | lawful_only | public_only | contradiction_pending | equivalent
route_asset_after: costlier | hostile | captured | false_owner | split_canon | recovery_only | blocked | equivalent
holder_state_after: overdrawn | hostile | captured | public_only | lawful_only | missed | protected_with_new_cost | none
counter_deltas:
  proof_legibility: -1
  proof_burden: +1

Interaction with existing lines

• In 导出证据回流分岔线, this event punishes accepted, traded, exposed, or quarantined proof that nobody can later produce.
• In 同意债转移线, this event prevents consent/refusal proof from becoming implied authority.
• In 归档执行案卷, this event is a failure pressure when the enforcement copy exists but the continuing proof burden collapses.
• In Route Assets and Custody, this event mutates route assets into costlier, hostile, captured, false-owner, split-canon, recovery-only, or blocked states.

Non-goals

• Not a generic punishment event.
• Not a countdown or fixed-turn event.
• Not a retcon of earlier proof success.
• Not a way to delete a difficult route without recovery logic.
• Not valid unless a previous proof-based relief is named and future play is mutated.
