C.23:3 - Forces

  • Pluralism vs. dispatchability. Competing Traditions expose different invariants; selection must compare without semantic flattening.
  • Maturity vs. opportunity. Open‑ended exploration (E/E‑LOG) must coexist with run‑safe exploitation; immature ≠ forbidden → provide safe degrade paths.
  • Unknowns (tri‑state). Missing or unknown values in live S2 fields must propagate explicitly to Degrade(mode) (including sandbox) or Abstain; no silent coercions.
  • Lexical discipline. Head‑anchoring, EntityOfConcern / Description / specification-use separation, Bridge hygiene; no tool names in Core.
