| One receiving decision is named | Generation has no stopping condition. | State what later Work or commitment will use the comparison. |
| Candidate kinds remain visible | Material, score, rule, Work, and occurrence collapse into “version”. | Identify each candidate under its actual kind and state how performance Work uses it. |
| Difference can change the decision | Near-duplicates inflate diversity. | Challenge the incumbent assumption through a relevant relation or characteristic. |
| Intended performer is involved | Rendering or model score hides embodied and instrumental consequences. | Use representative Work or state the narrower proxy claim. |
| Observation and judgement stay separate | One response silently becomes the whole evaluation. | State the observation, interpretation, use, uncertainty, and limit. |
| Every candidate has a scoped disposition | An archive substitutes for a decision. | Retain, revise, branch, or reject for the named performer, conditions, and use. |
| Local disposition stays local | A trial is reported as cultural recognition or selection. | Use C.36 and later population evidence for those claims. |
| Direct domain Method is used first | Generic procedure replaces composition, choreography, improvisation, or production practice. | Stop when the field Method already returns the needed result. |
