Fidelity without rigidity; adaptation without drift

Fidelity protects the mechanisms that make the model useful. Adaptation allows the program to fit age, culture, language, setting, and lived reality. Drift occurs when the program changes accidentally, silently, or for convenience without reviewing the impact.
