The price discipline

What stops routes competing on price.

What it is

A floor across all routes, so that the same customer receives the same price whoever they approach.

Without it, routes discount against each other and the customer captures the entire margin difference.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
