04 · STOP pathway · Fictional

The booking stops

Action status
Booking halted before submission
Proposed booking$412 · Not submitted
TicketNot issued
Simulated charge$0

You see a clear stop: no booking, no confirmation, no charge. This is one possible fictional outcome, not a verified Entry I capability.

04 · I'M NOT SURE pathway · Fictional

No decision yet

Action status
Unresolved · Waiting for a clear decision
Proposed booking$412 · Not submitted
Permission to continueNot established
Simulated charge so far$0

This is different from STOP. The question remains open, but the simulation makes no booking while the decision is uncertain. What happens later has not been determined.

07 · What this illustrates

The plans changed.
Should the agent keep going?

Why Entry I is exploring this: When someone changes their instruction, who decides whether the agent continues? This fictional story explores those questions. It does not prove that Entry I prevents real incidents.
