Integrity

Dictionaries mostly talk about integrity as an adherence to morals, principles, and values.  People often focus on the same realms around it in discussion.

(NOTE: When using the term “payload” below, I am referring to the actual message/topic/product/service…the “thing” being spoken about as the center or focus of the communication.)

Nuance builds and builds when looking at it from that perspective.  For example, there is the integrity of a transmission of communication, and then there is integrity of the actual payload itself.  Have we not all experienced people who have “sold us a bill of goods” that didn’t match the actual thing received?
