F.7:7 - Conceptual construction
- Start from a question. State the comparison or receiving use before selecting entries.
- Bring exact local meanings. Use F.0.1, F.2, F.3, and F.17 only as needed.
- Bring relations, do not manufacture them. Cite the direct pattern and evidence for each relation that matters.
- State the receiving-use conclusion separately. Say what the current comparison permits, with its basis and limits.
- Keep the row small. Usually two to four entries are enough; add another only when it changes the answer.
- Use contrast honestly. When no adequate relation is established, show the difference rather than forcing a unification.
