A.2:3 - Forces

ForceTension
Stable system identity vs changing contributionThe candidate remains one system while classifications, assignments, participation, and Work change.
Local typed use vs public ontology growthA project needs reusable work-facing kinds without admitting U.Role or another universal root.
Kind identity vs membershipCandidate domain, operative membership distinction, boundary probes, and continuity recover the kind; a current criterion application decides whether one system counts under it in a slice.
Classification vs assignmentA judgment classifies a system. An assignment is a direct relation occurrence and can exist or end independently.
Readable wording vs exact technical claims“Alice is reviewer” is useful; a receiving decision may still need the exact kind, judgment, assignment, or Work attribution.
Useful factorization vs false role mereologyCapability, responsibility, commitment, state, and Work remain separately governed rather than becoming parts of a role.
