B.1.3:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Conservatism vs. Synthesis | Refuse unsupported assurance gains ↔ retain the real contribution of complementary and alternative support. |
| Universality vs. Domain nuance | One operator across math, science, engineering specs ↔ domain‑specific semantics and evidence patterns differ. |
| Provenance fidelity vs. Cognitive load | Keep the full trail of sources and methods ↔ avoid overwhelming authors with bookkeeping. |
| Order/time discipline vs. Flow | Respect argument order, exact episteme identity and edition relations, and any proper temporal restriction ↔ keep composition usable for day-to-day synthesis. |
| Parsimony vs. Fit | Small rule set (A.11) ↔ explicit mappings, use-specific limitations, and justified loss models where needed. |
