C.2.2a:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Multi-facet fidelity vs readable publication | The chart must preserve several independent facets without becoming unreadable. |
| Stable basis vs local thresholds | Basis slots should stay stable across contexts, while thresholds remain context-local. |
| Position semantics vs publication semantics | A position claim is not identical to the source phenomenon, publication form, or carrier through which it is currently expressed. |
| Comparability vs non-collapse | Teams need to compare positions, but not by flattening them into one pseudo-scale. |
| Bridge reuse vs local authority | Cross-context work benefits from a stable upstream chart, yet each context keeps local threshold authority. |
