+### A piecewise's condition under a reading asks only the case it takes
+
+**Silent: `DomainConditionIn` of a `piecewise` is where the case it takes is defined, as `DomainCondition` already
+reads it (#1817), where it asked every case to be defined.** `piecewise(sqrt(x) provided x > 0, 1)` is 1 at `-4`, and its
+condition over the reals failed there. The library asks for this condition under the ambient reading, so the change
+reaches whatever consults it there ([#2256](https://github.com/asc-community/AngouriMath/issues/2256)).
+
+| Input | Was (2.6.0) | Now |

 ### A system with more or fewer equations than unknowns is solved or declined
