A.2.8:1 - Problem Frame

FPF needs both generic normative content and actual individual duties:

  • a policy can say what would apply to systems of a stated kind;
  • one constitutive rule can say when that content creates an individual duty;
  • actual world-side facts can satisfy or fail that rule;
  • one assertion or record can describe the resulting relation for reliance or audit.

Those are different objects. If a generic policy and an individual relation share one record-shaped ontology, an assignment row or published clause can appear to create a duty by being filled in. If the actual bearer is replaced by a system-role kind or assignment, the model cannot say who is obliged. If responsibility is inferred from the duty, another independent relation disappears.
