An exception is a governed temporary state, not an invisible second architecture.
- Record owner, exact scope, reason, risk, compensating control, evidence, approval, expiry, and review date.
- Make exceptions discoverable beside the standard and affected code or service.
- Distinguish a temporary migration waiver from a permanent supported variant.
- Aggregate repeated exceptions to identify a broken standard, missing platform capability, or unmanaged domain difference.
- Expire, renew with fresh evidence, convert to a supported path, or remove the exception explicitly.
