The worst answer is a confident one with nothing behind it. Every Quelvio answer is one of four kinds, and each one reads the same way every time.
- It answers. The lines that answer, highlighted, each with its source.
- It partly answers. The lines that answer part of the question. When only a draft says it, the draft is shown under its own heading, "Only a draft says this:", never as the answer.
- It may answer. "I found nothing that clearly answers this. These may help:", then what came closest.
- Not found. "I didn't find this in the sources you can read.", then the nearest lines.

When sources disagree
Quelvio works out which source holds from its versions, its dates, the standing a person gave each source (official, working or informal), and people's rulings. When nothing settles it, you see both under "The sources disagree:", and the people who look after those documents get it to rule on.

Why a plain stop
A fixed sentence gives an agent something plain to pass on instead of a guess, and gives a person the nearest lines to go on.
