E.24:5.6 - Bias-Annotation

Lenses tested: Gov, Arch, Onto and Epist, Prag, Did. Scope: the authoring decision about one candidate ontology unit. It selects durable U.Ontic, direct subject-assertion use, bounded local U.Episteme, or unresolved stop as the ontology disposition; when source wording is current, it separately records quote-only, reduced use, or selected stronger source use. The scope does not include the subject matter defined or constrained by the resulting ClaimGraph.

This pattern intentionally biases toward explicit identity, direct relation rules, reusable declarations where needed, and subject-pattern reuse. It resists five recurring distortions:

  • shadow-kind bias: repeated use of one bounded local episteme is mistaken for evidence that a new durable ontic exists;
  • placement bias: a pattern nest or draft ToC row is mistaken for the governed subject kind or governing text;
  • name bias: a cleaner term hides unresolved kinds, slots, and relations;
  • semio-bias: discussion of description epistemes, publication occurrences, forms, carriers, or review evidence displaces the ontic or subject matter being introduced;
  • process-bias: development-state, publication-state, evaluation-state, or process evidence status is copied into ontic or subject-matter content.

The mitigation is the same in each case: recover the primary governed subject kind, exact identity or constitution rule, minimal governed relation set, any identity-bearing direct relation actually selected, any required RelationSignature, and subject-pattern reuse before naming, placement, dependent-pattern reliance, or publication form starts governing the decision.
