Incomplete Professional Report State
Class
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#IncompleteProfessionalReportState
Definition
State in which a professional has produced or submitted a report or analysis that omits material information, selectively presents data, or fails to investigate relevant factors, resulting in a misleading or incomplete professional work product that violates duties of objectivity, completeness, and truthfulness.
Inherited from DeficientWorkProductSubmittedState
State in which a professional has submitted a work product to a client that contains errors, omissions, or deficiencies that fail to meet professional or regulatory standards, creating obligations to correct the deficiencies, notify affected parties, and assess whether safety or compliance risks have been introduced.

Match Reasoning
Deficient Work Product Submitted State covers errors and omissions in submitted work products, which overlaps substantially. However, the present concept is more specifically focused on the epistemic dimension of selective omission and failure to investigate in a report or opinion context, rather than the broader category of technical deficiencies. A medium-confidence match is appropriate; the existing class is the closest available but does not fully capture the deliberate or negligent omission of material information as the defining feature.
