E.19:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Uniformity vs Fit | One universal checklist is simple ↔ different pattern kinds carry different risks. |
| Rigor vs Editorial cost | Deep audits increase quality ↔ they must remain feasible for routine updates. |
| Stability vs Evolution | Canon should stay stable ↔ it must absorb new SoTA and correct mistakes. |
| Conceptual purity vs Enforceability | Core must stay implementation-agnostic ↔ gates must still be actionable and auditable. |
| Local meaning vs Reuse | Patterns must remain context-bound ↔ authors want to reuse ideas across domains. |
| Freshness vs timelessness | Some claims should be evergreen ↔ others decay and must be refreshed on cadence. |
