Limitations and assumptions

  • The display choice is supplied; identity, name order preference, kinship, legal naming conventions, and catalog filing practice are not inferred.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods
