Severity Level

• CURIE: gmeow:SeverityLevel
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/SeverityLevel
• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/risk
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

The graded severity of a cascade or hazard — an OPEN, ordered value vocabulary (catastrophic ≻ severe ≻ moderate ≻ minor; deployments add grades — negligible, critical, FMEA 1–10 bands — without schema change, Principle 9), the kernel GranularityLevel pattern (fourth use). gmeow:moreSevereThan is transitive ON LEVELS ONLY. Terminology anchored to ISO 31000 / IEC 60812 in docs, never axioms; what a grade DEMANDS in response is the norms extension's business, plugged in via Mitigation.

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:SeverityLevel as a specialized kind of gufo:QualityValue. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.
