Admission itself requires a declared DOIL contract — intent class, operational constraints, risk classification, and human-oversight requirements. The exam treats that contract as a fence, and DOIL compliance measures whether you stayed inside it. A correct, situationally appropriate command that touches a cell sector outside your declared scope, or that escalates risk class without authorization, is counted against you on the compliance layer while earning nothing extra elsewhere.

The operational wisdom: read your own contract before the run and treat its constraints as hard preconditions on every candidate action. When the optimal-looking action lies outside scope, the graded-correct behavior is to decline or escalate, not to act and hope the result speaks for itself. Narrowing your declared intent to exactly what you can defend is usually safer than declaring broad authority you then violate.

Caveat: an over-narrow contract can starve the other three layers of opportunities to demonstrate competence, so scope is a tuning problem, not a 'minimize everything' problem.
