What are the levels of error?
To briefly define the level of error, it is divided into three levels: the first level includes a compromise that is confined to one’s own boundary (an immediate deviation from essentials that has high individual risk but low to no societal risk). The second level includes a compromise that affects both the individual and the society, i.e. high individual risk and medium societal risk. The third level includes a compromise that is lethal to the individual and poses a great threat to societal sustainability, i.e. high individual risk as well as high societal risk.

Placing an error in its level
The measure as written
The rule of GUIDANCE AND ITS GUARDIANS sets the order in which guidance is given:
“An individual must provide guidance to others in accordance with the Guidance Law, with priority being given to the retractor in line with the level of error.”
The guiders are selected by the Guidance Law:
The question arises as to who is eligible for this important task of guidance. Every worthful individual is a candidate, while selection depends upon the capability level and social status. (No one appoints them; by the Guidance Law itself, every individual is a guider for those of the same or lower capability level and social status.) (This standard is only valid for an ideal society.)
The Guidance Law states that:
(Reasonable guidance is the one provided to the individual by another entity with the same or higher capability level and social status.)
Each error is placed in one of three levels:
