B.2.4:4.1 - Start From Exact Facts, Claims, And Support

  1. Name the exact existing whole and its direct identity or reidentification rule.
  2. Identify each exact capability envelope, obtaining functioning relation, or selected in-life transformation-flow structure under its subject pattern. Keep method, method description, work plan, work occurrence, module allocation, characteristic, and architecture facts separate when they are current.
  3. State the exact claim made about those facts. Name evidence or measurement only as a separate relation that supports, challenges, or leaves that claim unresolved.
  4. Perform B.2’s ordinary existing-whole comparison. Better measurement, component improvement, Method or Work repair, allocation repair, or architecture-view repair can leave the same whole in place.
  5. If a residual whole-reidentification question remains, use B.2 for it. B.2 then identifies one exact candidate new whole, applies the complete A.1 and kind-specific criteria, and compares that candidate with the existing whole.

B.2.4 adds no result species. If a receiving use needs a durable account, use B.2’s optional C.2.1 epistemes; their content neither creates the direct facts nor selects the new whole.
