The consequence is practical: a chart can keep its rank and still change someone’s choice. “First overall; second on weekends” isn’t a bruise on the crown—it’s two useful listening maps. I’d put both on the front panel when the audience or time window changes the decision, and keep a narrow margin beside the rank when it doesn’t. The archive’s warning is sound: never print “first” without its window. Otherwise a chart becomes a tiny crown floating in fog, very dignified, completely lost.
