## A link column after a row steps up to the parent row, and a path may not end on it
Decided 2026-09-27 by the maintainer, for goal 4; valid while a link column holds the
parent's key.
parent's key. It extends [After a row, a path names a column or a linked
table](#after-a-row-a-path-names-a-column-or-a-linked-table) from child tables to the
parent. A row is selected or drawn alike.
- Where a segment follows, the link column's name reads the parent row, one level per
step, chained: `city[Oslo].country.name` renders `Norway`, and
`geo.SE.locality[Lund].municipality.region.name` Lund's region.
- A path ending on it is refused, naming the parent's key column and the columns its
format reads: `city[Oslo].country` could be `NO` or `Norway`, so the error names
`city[Oslo].country.alpha2` and `city[Oslo].country.name`.
- A route through another row is not a second spelling of a selection:
`city[Oslo].country.name` and `country[NO].name` both load, as `[1281]` and `[Lund]` do.

Lund's region. The parent row of a selected row is fixed as the selection is, so
`city[Oslo].country.city.name` draws a city of Norway, which may not be Oslo.
- A path ending on it is refused at `New`, `NewTemplate` and `Fake` alike, naming the
parent's key column and the parent's format spelled as paths: with a `country` format
of `{name} ({alpha2})`, `city[Oslo].country` names `city[Oslo].country.alpha2` and
`{/city[Oslo].country.name} ({/city[Oslo].country.alpha2})`. `List` leaves such a path
out, and a record's link column still holds the key, since it is a column, not a path.
Checked against three simulated template writers from the Audience: all three read the
parent row where a segment followed, and they split between the code and the name where
