# A > I can imagine the situation where the coercer returns non-deterministic plans due to two variants being valid, and one being picked up by chance. Or, that the order on which functions of compatible signatures are registered dictates which one is used. Yes, you are correct, the system would have to be deterministic about which variant was chosen -- the easiest thing to understand would likely be registration order, as you suggest. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
