C.11.CRC:2 - Problem

Without an explicit configuration-relative comparison, practitioners make at least six transfers:

  • a finite change is approximated by a derivative outside its valid region;
  • a shadow price for one active constraint is multiplied into the value of an asset that changes several constraints;
  • a candidate is compared with an empty system instead of the actual current configuration;
  • several result and resource coordinates are hidden inside one scalar;
  • interaction and common-cause overlap are counted as independent contribution; and
  • information, option value, or reversibility is treated as realized benefit.

A.19 provides comparison mechanisms and characteristic spaces, C.29 governs mathematical lenses, and C.11 governs the choice. The remaining recurring practitioner action is to construct the finite comparison claim that those patterns can consume.
