*Structural Moves*

## Definition

A high-stakes advisory system is structurally designed to preempt or override an individual professional's situational judgment, leading to action against the human expert's specific knowledge even with a human nominally in the loop.

## Distinct from

* [**GER-314**](/ger/codes/314) — Structural preemption of in-the-loop professional judgment → this code. Enforceable authority boundaries drift over time → GER-314.
* [**GER-351**](/ger/codes/351) — A human is in the loop but is structurally preempted → this code. No human or validator exists at all → GER-351.
