Once a legal proceeding establishes that a practice signals institutional good faith, institutions across the relevant sector adopt it as a compliance measure. The practice is performed because not performing it creates institutional vulnerability — not because a community needs it, not because it serves a function the institution values on its own terms, but because the <a href="./legal-formatting.md" class="link-internal">legal formatting</a> has established it as expected.</p>
