MMP.19:3 - Forces
| Force | Consequence for construction |
|---|
| Case information and population variation | Infer the case’s conditions under the factual account before changing its mechanisms. |
| Marginal agreement and joint ambiguity | Recover or bound the dependence across alternatives when the target uses it. |
| Mechanistic detail and obtainable information | A supplied model can determine a conditional consequence that the data alone do not identify. |
| Pathway meaning and interactions | State which nested comparison is intended; different decompositions can answer different questions. |
| Useful decisions and unresolved counterfactuals | A sufficient action comparison may finish without recovering the whole joint law. |
