When two official pages disagree, do not average them
A conflict is a finding. Smoothing it into one cell is how a comparison table becomes marketing.
Firms update a help article and leave the old one up. They also write a FAQ that is looser than the terms. The useful act is to show both sentences, name both URLs, and say which decision you refused to make.
What PropChallenger does
- Store each passage on its own source card.
- Mark the product as an unresolved conflict, which the matcher will not treat as a clean pass.
- Leave the stricter and the looser number visible in the guide, not blended.
- Date the capture. A conflict can close. The date tells you to look again.
The demonstration book has a fictional version of this on purpose, at Sable and at Meridian, so the interface can be tested without accusing a live firm. The Topstep consistency pair and the Funding Pips news pair are the live versions of the same method.
