 #### Decision (2026-09)
 
-Known type-aware false positives are silenced with source-level `oxlint-disable`
-directives (see `src/pattern.ts`, `src/match.ts`, `src/index.test.ts`), not with
-rules disabled in `.oxlintrc.json`.
+A type-aware rule that false-positives is silenced with a source-level
+`oxlint-disable` directive (see `src/pattern.ts`, `src/match.ts`,
+`src/index.test.ts`), not by turning the rule off in `.oxlintrc.json`.
 
 #### Why
 
 - The disable sits next to the code it silences, visible to anyone reading the
   source.
+- The rule stays on everywhere else, so only the mis-firing line is exempted.
 
 #### Rejected
 
-- A project-wide disable in `.oxlintrc.json`: it hides the suppression from the
-  reader of the affected code.
+- A project-wide disable in `.oxlintrc.json` for a false positive: it hides the
+  exemption from the reader of the affected code and switches the rule off
+  repo-wide for a one-site problem.
 
 #### Known issue
 
 - A source-level disable is a _human_ last resort. AI agents must not add one;
   they fix the type at its root (see [AGENTS.md § Never do](../AGENTS.md#never-do)).
 
+### Unwanted stylistic rules are turned off in the config
+
+#### Decision (2026-09)
+
+A stylistic rule the project rejects is `"off"` in the `.oxlintrc.json` `rules`
+map, not silenced at a use site. Current entries: `eslint/capitalized-comments`
+(comments may start lowercase) and `eslint/no-ternary` (ternaries are allowed),
+joining the oxfmt-superseded rules already off.
+
+#### Why
+
+- The rule is wrong for the whole project, not mis-firing at one site, so there
+  is no line to annotate.
+- Keeping the two mechanisms separate keeps a source-level `oxlint-disable`
+  meaningful: it marks a lone exception.
+
+#### Rejected
+
+- A source-level `oxlint-disable` per use: the same exemption repeated at every
+  site, and oxfmt can move the site.
+
 ### `check:tsc` runs first
