C.25:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Simplicity vs category hygiene | Authors want one convenient quality label; the framework must still keep CHR, USM, mechanism, status values, and status-use relations distinct. |
| Comparability vs local applicability | Measures should compare legally across contexts, while scope remains context-local and set-valued. |
| Thin ontology vs practical authoring | The pattern should regularize quality authoring without creating a new heavy kernel family for every -ility. |
| Endpoint clarity vs expressive breadth | Some quality terms really are one characteristic; others are bundles. The endpoint rule must cover both without ambiguity. |
