Confidence inherited from the adoption evidence band (early_signal → ceiling C); the engine does not upgrade confidence above its evidence. Resolved to C: narrow margin over the runner-up cluster; held at the C evidence-floor — early-signal evidence exists, so this is a close / under-evidenced call, not off-map (D is reserved for zero evidence). Non-obvious transfer: Marketing Budget Allocation carries with high property-similarity but low title-adjacency to Finance Manager — the artifact title-based engines structurally miss. Shortest bridges into Finance Manager: Budgeting & Forecasting, Financial Reporting, Financial Regulatory Compliance. Confidence inherited from the adoption-evidence band. The engine does not upgrade confidence above its substrate. C/D is honesty, not weakness.
