A.7:1 - Intent

Provide a single, didactically clear lattice of distinctions for recognizing and correcting category errors. The pattern addresses four recurrent confusions:

  1. System-role kind vs function (classification vs behaviour),
  2. MethodDescription vs Method vs Capability vs Work (description vs abstract way-of-doing vs system ability/envelope vs performed occurrence),
  3. Holon vs System vs Episteme (what can act and what cannot),
  4. EntityOfConcern vs Description episteme, View, and Publication (the item under concern vs epistemes and publication relation positions that make it available; specification is a gated use or refinement of a Description episteme, not a third peer member of this distinction).

It harmonizes A.2 and A.2.1 for system-role kinds and system-role-assignment relations, A.3.4 for transformation, A.10 for evidence-provenance and carrier and source-currentness relations, A.14 for advanced mereology, A.15 for System-Role-Method-Work alignment, C.2.1 for episteme constitution and its separate empirical-grounding and edition relations, E.17 for publication and view discipline, and F.9, F.17, and F.18 for bridge and naming discipline.
