deliberate
Since pre-v2.67.0 (introduction unrecorded) · Used inside a declaration
Grammar
deliberate { <body> } # REFUSED at check time (axon-T939)
deliberate was sold as budget-bounded deliberation. It fails
closed (v2.67.0): the checker refuses it with axon-T939.
Why refusal is the honest state
The old placeholder discarded the body at parse time — no budget
was ever controlled, and "completing" the block was a lie the adopter
could not detect. v2.67.0's posture: an adopter told loudly is safe; an
adopter fooled silently is not. FailsClosed is an acceptable state to
advertise from — the primitive returns when a real deliberation runtime
exists.
