C.32.CONWAY:10 - Rationale

Architectures do not act. Systems perform dated Work under exact system-role assignments when performance is claimed. Architectures, selected structures, Work arrangements, communication structures, constraints, and candidate-synthesis results can nevertheless influence which transformed architecture is feasible. C.32.CONWAY is useful precisely because it relates those facts without merging them.

The exact pair row gives one obtaining architecture-influence or correspondence occurrence a reusable episteme. The larger frame remains useful when a project has enough information to prepare candidates but not enough to assert that exact row. This preserves practical forward motion while keeping the exact relation status visible: missing governor, unresolved grounding, false predicate, or satisfied affirmative case.

The four candidate forms remain: change the influence-source side, change the transformed architecture, change both, or keep a bounded mismatch. The split between actor facts and influence facts changes their grounding, not their constructive purpose.
