EXD.2:4.4 - Bound the example and stop at its useful result

State the admissible correspondence and the nearest consequential limit. A branch can be a unit in one aggregation question and contain several equally weighted people in another. The same data then support different summaries.

Retain the smallest example or pair that supplies the needed distinction. Add another case only when it can reveal a remaining wrong generalization or support the intended next use. An example is evidence of the particular relation it demonstrates; claims about learning from it need the recipient evidence appropriate to that claim.
