MATH.22:6 - Bias-Annotation

Familiar structures can make their extra laws feel unavoidable. The permutation and partial-order cases expose assumptions that integers with addition or a single numerical scale can conceal.

The examples use elementary classical structures so that the changed laws can be inspected directly. They demonstrate the method without deciding between competing foundations of mathematics. A foundational change needs its own interpretation and consequences, including any change in constructive use.
