E.21:4.4a - Frequent value-3, value-4, and value-5 calibration points
These rows calibrate common disagreements. They do not replace the coordinate definitions above.
| Coordinate family | 3 is typical when | 4 is typical when | 5 is typical when |
|---|---|---|---|
WorkingSituationAndUseBoundaryRecognizability | The situation is recoverable but late, abstract, or missing its practical gain, harm, first move, or action boundary. | The situation, intended use, first move, practical consequence, and stop or return are early and clear; any non-use distinction has a locally grounded plausible reading. | Early recognition is reinforced by a filled or replayable first-use slice showing that a cold practitioner can enter correctly. |
EntityOfConcernAndClaimScopeStability | The primary object is named but related record, evidence, lens, or project claims keep pulling the scope. | The primary EntityOfConcern and claim scope stay stable, with bounded related-pattern material. | Scope stability is reinforced across title, recognition text, Solution, worked or replayable case material, checklist, relations, and any independently grounded non-use boundary without any local apparatus stealing attention. |
PatternApplicationGuidance | The first action is named but only partly executable, or the Solution mostly assigns governing loci instead of giving this pattern’s own action. | The first action and continuation are executable in this pattern’s own subject terms; related-pattern statements are declarative, compact, and late. | The application guidance is demonstrated by a filled worked slice or equivalent replayable evidence. |
ClosureAndBoundedNonUseRecoverability | Stop, repair, return, or related-pattern contribution is present but does not yet select the next action. | Stop, repair, return, reopen, and concrete defining, constraining, testing, or restoration contributions are recoverable for the declared use; any non-use boundary has an independent local ground. | A worked stop, overturn, return, or grounded non-use case shows how closure changes status or the next applicable pattern relation. |
NeighborAuthorityAndBoundedUseFit | Related patterns are named but their contribution remains generic, future-pattern-like, ambiguous, hidden behind an unresolved role nickname, or too early in the Solution; or a separately asserted authority relation lacks its own basis. | Related patterns are named by value with limited declarative relations and the concrete definition, constraint, test, or repair contribution used here; use of each contribution stays within its stated scope, and related-pattern content does not replace the pattern’s own content. | Those contributions and their limits remain replayable across cases, relations, and grounded boundary cases, with pattern application and any independently asserted authority relation explicit. |
EntityOfConcernPrimacyAndSemioBiasResistance | The pattern is about its object but one or more precision-restoration layers lead or leak into it as development, review, or evaluation apparatus. | The pattern leads with its own object and application guidance; auxiliary material is compact, declarative, and late; role-word, slot, publication-form, source, locus, flow, and status expressions are used only when they add a real kind, relation, evidence value, or user-facing action; quality or projection evidence about the pattern stays outside the pattern. | The primary object and application guidance are first recoverable across recognition text, Solution, cases, and checks even when auxiliary material is present, and any precision-restoration, quality, or projection material is in its proper evaluation, projection, or publication locus rather than in the pattern. |
PracticalUseDeltaAndHarmPrevention | The practical gain or prevented harm is named but not demonstrated. | The pattern changes a recoverable use through a named practical gain or prevention of plausible harm or misuse for the declared use. | A worked or near-miss case shows the practical delta and cost of missing the pattern; when harm prevention is claimed, the case demonstrates it. |
UseAffordabilityAndApparatusProportionality | The first move exists but apparatus is heavy for ordinary readers. | Ordinary first use is affordable and heavier apparatus opens only when useful. | A minimal first-use example shows the thin ordinary use works before heavy apparatus. |
RepairLocalityAndChangeImpactPredictability | Repair conditions or related-pattern relations are named but downstream impact is not shown. | Repairs have local loci and predictable impact for declared use. | A worked repair or downstream-impact slice shows the smallest locus and changed related-pattern relation. |
ProxyForValueSubstitutionResistance | Proxy risks are named but “what got worse” is not applied. | The pattern blocks visible proxy substitutions and asks what worsened. | A proxy-failure case shows a visible improvement damaging intended value, and the pattern prevents that proxy substitution. |
ClaimJustificationTraceabilityCurrentnessAndReplayability | Fields or sources exist but replayability and currentness basis are incomplete. | The claim can be replayed from pinned text, evidence, currentness basis, status, and stop reason. | A filled evidence and currentness slice shows how the claim is replayed and when it reopens. |
CaseCountercaseAndTransferCoverage | Archetypes are listed, but no filled worked case or near-miss exercises the claim. | At least one filled worked case plus a near-miss or anti-case covers the declared use. | Heterogeneous cases, countercases, and transfer slices cover the breadth claimed. |
MaturePatternParityAndSelectedContentSufficiency | Mature comparators are named or implied, but selected mature ingredients are not discharged by value. | Mature comparators are named and selected ingredients are discharged by value in the body or related patterns named by value. | Mature parity is shown across reinforcing body sections, related patterns, omissions, cases, and lowering conditions without copying irrelevant apparatus. |
SoTABindingAndCurrentness | A source set or currentness account is relevant, but the positive claim does not yet satisfy the E.8:11 comparison; identity/currentness alone remains below the ordinary floor. | One complete E.8:11 comparison is present by value, its selected line defeats or bounds a serious alternative at comparable effort, and the decision changes exact governed pattern loci. | A replayable comparison across reinforcing loci shows why 4 understates the binding; a longer, newer, more official, or more popular bibliography supplies no increase. |
FormalClaimAdmissibilityAndLensFit | Formal, scale, lens, or measurement terms are bounded but not exercised. | Formal, lens, and measurement claims are admissible for their stated use, bounded, and connected to the concrete pattern content that defines, constrains, or tests their admissibility when the evaluated pattern makes such claims; exact predicates are required only when the claim or named reliance needs them. | A worked formal, lens, or scale comparison shows what is preserved, lost, admissible, and not proved. |
FalsifiabilityAndLoweringCondition | A closure or limitation is stated, but lowering and reopen triggers for the main claims are mostly implicit. | The pattern states explicit lowering and reopen triggers for its main claims; named fields alone do not reach 4 unless they say what evidence change lowers, overturns, rejects, or reopens the claim. | Worked lowering or overturn cases show how values, status, or use change. |
CorpusEntryProjectionAndEcologyFit | Host text is coherent, but README, ToC, E.11, card, retrieval, monolith, or projection evidence is absent for a corpus-facing claim, or that evidence is placed anywhere in the pattern as method, note, appendix, relation, rationale, or quality-status content about the pattern. | Corpus-facing entry or projection loci are named and aligned enough for the declared use, and their evidence stays in the evaluation, result, or projection locus rather than entering the pattern. | Retrieval, stale-projection, cold-reader, or projection-update evidence shows corpus ecology stays aligned after change without leaking into the pattern. |
EvolutionFrontAndRefreshDiscipline | Reopen is delegated to related patterns or implied by source-return. | The smallest reopen locus, source or currentness trigger, or variant or front condition is explicit. | Variant, front, archive, or ongoing refresh discipline is replayable for the declared use. |
For EntityOfConcernPrimacyAndSemioBiasResistance, do not compensate a bad PrecisionRestorationProfile with NeighborAuthorityAndBoundedUseFit or CorpusEntryProjectionAndEcologyFit. Ask which governed object, claim, relation, and reader use the sentence serves. Material about developing, reviewing, projecting, landing, evaluating, or proving this pattern’s quality belongs in the evaluation, projection, release, or publication locus that carries that work. Related-pattern statements can be true and still damage the pattern when they precede its own EntityOfConcern and application guidance. If the opening Problem frame or Solution starts with precision-restoration material before the subject and move, this coordinate is at most 2; if the reader must traverse that material across sections to find the action, it is at most 3. Put compact concrete contributions in Relations or a late boundary row. Add local guard prose only when it passes F.19:4’s full independent-ground, plausible-reader, contribution, and smallest-clear-correction test and the subject pattern does not already settle the needed distinction. Also lower PatternApplicationGuidance, WorkingSituationAndUseBoundaryRecognizability, PracticalUseDeltaAndHarmPrevention, and UseAffordabilityAndApparatusProportionality when the profile shows that auxiliary material displaces first use.
If the declared use is Stable, landing-input, release-input, external-review-ready, or another corpus-facing use, assessment work must inspect the applicable corpus-entry and projection evidence and the result’s EvaluationEvidenceBasis must name it. A host-only body assessment can still produce values about the pattern body, but it cannot silently turn missing README, ToC, E.11, card, retrieval, monolith, or projection evidence into a high CorpusEntryProjectionAndEcologyFit value.
