  "mechanism": "When a classification must assign one label, as a {{route}} to one handler or an exclusive partition like {{mece}} does, and the object's relevant properties point to more than one category, the mismatch is flagged. The flag lists each candidate category with the properties that point to it. If one label is still assigned, the record states what the other categories would have triggered.",
