Inspect the recorded method
Method 1.0 · registry b475ec0da23d
Format decision: ADJACENT. cream and butter are adjacent vehicle classes in v1

Unknowns

- not computable: unit classes differ (volume vs net weight)
Limitations
- INCI order is a regulatory ordering constraint above 1% only; concentrations at or below the 1% line cannot be inferred from order.
- Ingredient parity is formulation math. It does not establish equivalent performance, texture, stability, or sensory experience.
- Same actives is formulation math, not a performance promise. Texture, stability, and experience can differ.
