C.20:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Pluralism vs cohesion | Rival claims and practices can remain visible while the exact assembly must still sustain one field-level whole. |
| Continuity vs genuine reidentification | Parts and relations can change while the same discipline continues, but a name must not hide a changed assembly or boundary. |
| Readable minimum vs constructive assurance | Ordinary work needs a short part-and-assembly account; reliance-bearing work may need a C.13 trace, evidence, currentness, and assurance. |
| Local meaning vs cross-field reuse | A practice or term can be reused through an exact bridge without the bridge becoming a discipline part or merging its endpoints. |
| Rigor vs agility | Exact parts and identity are required, while comparison, publication, health, and registry apparatus are added only for a named receiving use. |
| Didactic presentation vs ontology | A discipline card can aid reading but none of its rows, columns, or empty positions makes a world-side relation obtain. |
