A.6.3.CSC:4.6 - Neighboring-pattern boundaries
| If the primary question is now… | Use this pattern contribution or exact authority source |
|---|---|
| Same-entity textual rewording without a separate narrower-use or controlled-loss question | A.6.3.CR |
| Representation scheme or reasoning-medium shift | A.6.3.RT |
| Source structure is ordered into a sequential narrative path and the ordering rationale is primary | A.6.3.NAR for the narrative rendering relation; keep CSC for the controlled-loss and narrower-use account when source distinctions are dropped or narrowed |
Explanation-facing class over exact source episteme X, whether or not it is currently published | E.17.EFP; any publication occurrence, form, and carrier remain under E.24.PUB |
| Bounded comparison over exact source epistemes, with any publication access stated separately | E.17.ID.CR |
| Equivalence, substitution, projection, or interop relation | The pattern that governs the operative relation; use F.9 when the claim requires a Bridge between exact local senses with different interpretation bases, with a separate bounded-use claim |
| A short reading note about an already constituted F.9 bounded-use claim | F.9.1; a Card is optional packaging rather than a prerequisite |
| Changed EntityOfConcern or proxy EntityOfConcern | A.6.4 |
| Carrier, export, OCR or parsing, or front-end behavior is primary | A.7 first; then A.6.3.RT, A.6.3.CSC, A.6.4, or interpretation sources only if meaning-bearing structure, loss, retargeting, or interpretive lift is live |
| Briefing treated as a Work plan or execution cue, or actual Work is asserted | The applicable A.15 pattern for the plan or actual Work; for an authority-looking claim, select the matching A.6 A6-AW-* row by the actual assertion and follow its direct subject pattern |
| Constraint, gate, approval, assurance, or adjudication claim | Use the direct pattern for the asserted claim: A.20 for the actual constraint and A.21 for the actual gate. For authority-looking wording, first select the matching A.6 A6-AW-* row by the actual assertion and follow its direct subject pattern |
Neighboring guidance may cite CSC when controlled loss, narrower use, and source return become the primary question. CSC does not replace the concrete definitions, tests, methods, evidence rules, work rules, or gate rules used by those other questions.
