Why it matters

The asymmetry is the point: an issue that takes minutes to fix in early design takes a full correction cycle to fix after submission, with redrawn sheets, re-coordination, and another turn in the review queue. Correction counts are also one of the few compliance metrics both firms and jurisdictions already track, which makes them the natural measure of whether design-phase checking is working.
