E.13:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
|---|
| Measurement vs value | Projects need visible signals, but signals can replace the value they indicate. |
| Local optimization vs protected qualities | A local score can improve while another value-bearing dimension worsens. |
| Evaluation signal vs object improvement | A visible evaluation mark can be easier to raise than the object is to improve. |
| Proxy affordability vs value evidence | A proxy is cheap; demonstrating value can be expensive. |
| Release confidence vs ongoing distortion | A proxy may be safe for orientation but unsafe as a gate, incentive, or release argument. |
