Limitations

This paper is conceptual. It does not provide empirical evidence that Correspondence Assessment improves organizational outcomes. It does not define a measurement instrument, metric architecture, composite index, statistical model, software workflow, AI implementation, product architecture, or certification scheme. These omissions preserve the paper's theoretical scope.

Final target-journal formatting, final figure artwork, appendix production, and author metadata remain submission-production work. The theory is written to stand alone, but it still depends on the broader Correspondence Theory vocabulary; future submissions should continue to define inherited constructs concisely for external readers.
