Site half of IntentFile/intent-specification#19.

The entities page stated the default ("a child that says nothing keeps freezing with its master") and then spelled out only the opt-out half — that a generator must not extend the lock to a child declared locksWithMaster: false, affordances included. The default was left to be read as affordances alone, which is exactly how one implementation read it: the child's endpoint kept accepting writes against a locked master.

A child write maintains the master's derived values, so it reaches what the lock protects — the totals a stamped number, a frozen copy and a posted ledger entry were all taken from. Now normative in both directions, with the reason next to it.

master") and then spelled out only the opt-out half - that a generator must not extend the
lock to a child declared `locksWithMaster: false`, affordances included. The default was

child's endpoint kept accepting writes against a locked master.
