MDPE.13:3.3 - Find the pressure that changes later practice
For each important selection or visibility relation, ask what a rational participant is likely to optimize. State the expected change as a hypothesis, not as an observed fact.
Examples of feedback hypotheses include:
- a camera-framed battle may reward large, brief, front-facing distinctions over partner-readable timing;
- one school progression may favor material that is easy to name and assess over material learned through varied embodied situations;
- a fixed-duration music programme may exclude slow-form or installation-like performance Methods;
- a recommendation System may amplify already visible material and make popularity appear self-validating;
- expert criteria may preserve subtle lineage distinctions while freezing one historical interpretation.
For each hypothesis, identify the affected Agent or practice, the predicted change, a plausible rival explanation, and an observation that could distinguish them. Use MDPE.12 for the resulting comparison and C.28 only when a causal claim needs stronger support.
