C.11.DUA:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Truthful support and useful continuation | The present evidence may support a narrower answer than the requested one; scarce resources do not strengthen that evidence. |
| Inquiry and commitment | Information or computation can improve a choice, while delay, opportunity cost and investigation risk can worsen it. |
| Requirement merits and present force | A requirement may deserve revision while continuing to constrain what the recipient can presently do. |
| Immediate and later value | Operational action, explanatory progress, better models and future options can all matter at different horizons. |
| Protective contribution and distributed burden | A cheap measure for the issuer can be costly for its recipient or shift risk to another affected party. |
| Useful basis and unnecessary accounting | A decision needs its supporting basis; a record of an inactive check needs an actual receiving use. |
