RE: Quick Valid Question

Yes - exactly. Only an implementation can know if the spatial constraint is met.

The job of the evaluator is to tell you, given the status of the constraint, whether the rule is active or not. Hence the 'truth tables'. (Though they're really tables of state, not truth).

So we cannot ascertain state unless we know the context.

That is, a specific implementation, under specific conditions, is only able to determine the state of a rule.
