Matching Values Do Not Prove Integration

Suppose Java reports 0.42 and a ROS message also reports 0.42.

That is evidence of agreement, not evidence of a transport path.

To claim integration, you would need evidence of the mechanism connecting the layers, such as a bridge process, shared interface, network path, log correlation, or other observable transfer.

Checkpoint

Build a two-column evidence table:

Then add a third row titled missing integration evidence.

Write one sentence that would be invalid without that missing evidence.
