An intent now states who owns it, what altitude it sits at, and where it stands — and a check refuses one that does not. Reading an intent's opening lines used to leave the important questions open: two of the fields a reader needs most were optional, and one was buried in the body. Anyone can now learn who is accountable, how high the bet sits, whether it is still live, and whether it has been tested and broken down, without reading further.
A stopped bet can say so. An intent that was withdrawn or cancelled now records that as its own standing, rather than being indistinguishable from one still waiting. A rollup that counted a cancelled bet as delivered is the outcome this prevents.
