B.5.MPC:4.7 - Return the consequence and choose what to do with it
Explain the result in the original physical terms. A count becomes a modeled displacement; an odd cycle becomes a set of contacts that prevents the stipulated nonzero rotation; a card invariant becomes a bound on occupancy under the entry rules. State what the result enables and the condition that changes that use.
When the consequence is insufficient, make the next contribution specific. “Determine whether these two wheels slip differently under this load” can direct physical work. “Find a representation that retains accumulated turns” can direct mathematical formulation. “Establish whether this interface interprets the number as an increment or an absolute target” can direct realization work. The uncertainty itself can be the result if locating it prevents further work on the wrong question.
Distinguish the consequence of an obstruction. A mathematical contradiction blocks a construction under its stated premises. A physical restriction blocks an intervention under the applicable laws. An expensive computation can remain mathematically possible while unavailable within the resources of this use. Their repairs can require different questions, arrangements or Methods.
Stop when the supported result answers the intended use. When development is the purpose, work one consequential variation far enough to reveal a new construction, obstruction or missing operation. Explain which additional action or longer inquiry it could enable. B.5:4.4, C.39 and C.40 supply the corresponding question and repertoire development; continued work is justified by that use.
