The absence of isolated color-charged asymptotic states and formation of color-singlet hadrons at ordinary energies.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Confinement is a nonperturbative property of low-energy QCD, supported by experiment and lattice calculations, though no general continuum proof exists for physical QCD.
The target is a collective, organizational, or scale-dependent phenomenon of the source constituents and interactions; it is not a mere list or classical sum of constituents.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Confinement restricts isolated asymptotic hadrons to color-singlet states.
A theory, law, or interaction describes the behavior of the target within a stated regime. The edge detail must state important limits or qualifications.
