In fact, all our measures of relevance confirmation (\(D, L\), and \(Z\)) entail the ordinal extension of the Entailment Condition (EC) as well as \(C_{P}(h, e\mid k) = -C_{P}(\neg h, e\mid k)\) and thereby Confirmation Complementarity in all of its forms (qualitative, ordinal, and quantitative).
They entail a range of assumptions and need assessment and confirmation by further research and analysis.
The solution of confirmation by proxy, as some researchers suggested in the past, entails the risk of precipitated distortion, because past interpersonal relationships can easily intrude the proxy's image of the centenarian.
