A missing measurement is not zero, and failing a benefit criterion does not automatically establish equivalence. The record should state which uncertainty is present.

KLM’s honest-null approach and Autorite’s preservation of indeterminate outcomes approach this concept through different applications.

Missing or indeterminate evidence remains explicit in the record.
