E.10:0.2c.26 - claim, evidence, witness, ground, proof

Claim is not a synonym for sentence or prose. Evidence is not a synonym for source, proof, approval, or confidence.

For claim, recover:

  • claim-bearing episteme;
  • claim node, claim content;
  • EntityOfConcern or claim referent;
  • viewpoint and representation scheme when needed for the claim;
  • admissibility target when the claim is used.

For evidence-like words, recover:

  • evidence record or evidence-provenance relation;
  • witness or source pin;
  • grounding relation;
  • validation result;
  • assurance argument component;
  • provenance mark only as provenance, not as evidence by itself.

If evidence is being read as engineering justification, gate passage, deontic permission, work authorization, safety assurance, evidence sufficiency, release authorization, or release confidence, apply the FPF pattern for that stronger claim or use the project-side FPF kind and reference named by value instead of strengthening the evidence word.
