Which outcome occurs when the structure of an Inca quipu deteriorates due to repeated handling?

💡 Explanation

Deterioration of the quipu's structure leads to the tangling and breakage of cords, causing inaccurate knot placement; this is because data was encoded via knot position exhibiting data integrity reduction, therefore numerical inaccuracies increase, rather than any benefits associated with its textile-based construction.
