E.17.ID.CR:4.2.a - Working-fit test

Use this discipline only when all of the following hold:

  1. the reviewed source episteme or source publication is already pinned or otherwise reviewable;
  2. the review unit adds one bounded comparative or interpretive lift, or a small set of bounded contrast rows with row-level comparison criteria;
  3. the case is still answering a bounded contrastive question rather than selecting an action;
  4. the shared review frame stays preserved, and compared alternatives remain distinct unless an explicit bridge or substitution source supplies equivalence, substitution, or another named relation between them;
  5. the main question is not already better described as same-entity viewing, an F.9.1 stance note about an existing bounded-use claim, or explanation-face use discipline.

If any of those fail, handle the current work under the neighboring FPF pattern and project-side FPF kind and reference named by value that actually govern it.
