E.17.EFP:4.2 - Core profile fields

The ontic first screen is performed once, not copied into a metadata record for every note. Most published forms whose identity branch is already recoverable need only the compact explanation-use note:

Core fieldQuestion
explanationClassWhich local profile value is assigned to this one rendering?
source referenceWhich exact source or related target edition, identified by claims, concern and effective scheme, does the text express sufficiently for this use? Which locator reopens that decision and any material omissions? Which E.24.PUB occurrence matters only when availability is load-bearing?
bounded explanation-reader useWhat can the explanation reader do with this explanation now: understand, navigate, inspect, teach, or prepare review?
blocked downstream useWhat wider claim or effect is not carried by the explanation?
reopen or boundary conditionWhat source change, dispute, use escalation, missing source relation, or neighboring-pattern boundary condition ends this profile use?

The fuller field vocabulary below opens only when ambiguity or load-bearing use is present: different classes across faces, source linkage dispute, connective reconstruction, reader-fit dispute, interaction or statefulness, derivative rendering, cross-context reuse, cited reliance, work or reliance, evidence, gate, engineering justification, bridge, or coarsening boundary.

  • faceRuleRef = E.17 and viewpointConformanceRuleRef = E.17.0;

  • evidencePolicy;
  • gatePolicy;
  • workCrossing;
  • sourceRelationRuleRef?, upstreamAuthoritySourceRef?, downstreamUseRuleRef?, and downstreamAuthoritySourceRef?;
  • boundedFaces;
  • publication-face kind value when publication face/form or interop publication form discipline is present;
  • publicNamePolicy;
  • explanationSourceRelationClass using the shared E.17:5.1b vocabulary when source pointer, source availability or retrieval, source use, source faithfulness, claim-source relation, contradiction, omission, claim widening, added linkage, independent verification, bounded use, forbidden downstream use, or reopen trigger could diverge;
  • no generic source-relation field; source relation is recorded through explanationSourceRelationClass;
  • augmentationRelation;
  • addedLinkPolicy when a non-obvious SourceLinkedExplanationReconstruction connective points to an actual derivation from the source claims or to an exact relation occurrence that those source claims already report and whose obtaining is independently established;
  • targetUserModel? when reader-fit materially shapes the rendering;
  • interactionMode? when the explanation is more than one static explanatory paragraph;
  • contrastiveQuestion? when the rendering is answering a specific user-facing contrast or why-question;
  • boundedReaderUse? when downstream use is bounded by intended reader and task;
  • overreadRisk? when overinterpretation pressure is part of the review load;
  • evidenceRelation? only when a named operative claim or receiving reliance actually consumes an A.10 evidence/provenance path;
  • noNewBoundaryClaims = true on explanation faces;
  • compositionRule;
  • reopenCondition.

These fields inherit the E.17:5.1e local-field rule. They classify one explanation-facing rendering for review; they do not create U.Kind, publication-face kind, RelationKind, KindBridge, EvidenceKind, GateDecision, SpeechAct, Commitment, U.Work, authority reference, publication face, or project-side FPF kind and reference named by value unless another FPF pattern explicitly defines or instantiates that object. The explanationClass value is a local source-relation and bounded-use profile value, not ExplanationKind, not U.Kind, not EvidenceKind, not FaceKind, and not a truth certificate.

When claim content changes, pause EFP until the practitioner uses C.2.1 to identify the target episteme and the applicable source-to-target pattern to identify and test the relation. EFP may then qualify a publication form of that target only when explanation use remains a distinct question; it never substitutes for that relation or its obtaining test.
