A.3.1.MR:3 - Forces

ForceTension
Reuse versus historical truthThe project seeks a reusable way, while every source first says something about particular Work or evidence construction.
Coherence versus underdeterminationOne neat account is useful, but several accounts may fit the same observations.
Traceability versus tacit contributionSources must support each claim, yet important perceptual, embodied, conversational, or discretionary contributions may not be recorded.
Useful grain versus false detailThe receiving use may need one broad reusable way or a safety-critical branch; the evidence should not force the wrong grain.
Discovery power versus modeling choiceProcess-mining tools can reveal patterns, but event extraction, naming, correlation, abstraction, and windows shape the result.
Provisional identity versus Method admissionA candidate reusable way needs enough identity to be discussed, without being admitted prematurely as U.Method.
Common minimum versus specialist burdenEvery domain needs source-to-claim recovery and lowering; complete sampling, elicitation, integration, and trials belong in specialist Method Engineering.
