Primes

• Asymmetric Interface Tolerance
  • The resolution required a coordinated policy change over the lifecycle — a new versioned standard (HTML5) that specified the error-handling itself, writing the previously de-facto liberal behavior into an explicit, uniform algorithm so that "liberal" became deterministic rather than per-browser.

    This sourceSpecifies a deterministic, uniform error-handling algorithm, converting previously per-browser liberal parsing into a single shared specification of the tolerance.

    Supported in partVerified against the work's full text

    The spec itself defines well-specified parsing and error handling for malformed HTML, but it does not narrate the HTML5 history or the shift from per-browser behaviour.

    “This specification defines the parsing rules for HTML documents, whether they are syntactically correct or not.”

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
