It discloses that GPT-5.5 Pro is not always independently safety-evaluated, relying instead on results from GPT-5.5 as a proxy.
Interpretive note: The qualifier 'generally' is material and preserved; it signals this is not an absolute rule, which is captured in the separate evaluation clause (68106).
Users of GPT-5.5 Pro should be aware that its safety posture is generally assessed through GPT-5.5's results rather than fully independent evaluation.
