ME.15:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
|---|
| Reuse | Stable variant identities help later selection, while premature naming creates spurious Methods. |
| Local adaptation | Work must respond to situations, while one local departure need not be reusable semantics. |
| Provenance | Derivation helps explain and compare variants, while similarity and chronology can be mistaken for evidence. |
| Evidence | Fit and worth results should follow the right semantics, while evidence often bundles Method, support, capability, and organization. |
| Currentness | Users need current entries and editions, while retirement from one use must not erase history. |
| Candidate continuity | Proposed changes need traceability, while detailed lineage can launder candidate status. |
| Recombination | Components can inspire new Methods, while untested hybrids do not inherit component admission or worth. |
