Interpretation
Professional integrity requires engineers to act from internalized professional values rather than client pressure. Engineer B's insistence on notification, despite client reluctance, reflects the kind of character-based professional conduct that integrity demands.
Tension resolution
Engineer B correctly treated the notification obligation as a matter of professional integrity that could not be waived by client instruction, and the Owner ultimately accepted this position.
