"The ampere is defined by the elementary charge"
The SI ampere is defined by fixing the elementary charge e to an exact value.
Warrant (how it is justified) and consensus state / credence (where the community stands) are independent axes. The four warrant kinds are unordered peers — not a certainty ladder.
This is a human-established fact. It holds within INTERNATIONAL as enacted by BIPM.
