MMP.8:3 - Forces
| Choice | Consequence |
| One decision or an adaptive rule | An adaptive rule can use later observations but needs a realizable way to receive and act on them. |
| Possible success or required success | A successful case can support possibility while leaving a guarantee unresolved. |
| Unknown state and random state | An uncertainty set permits several values; probabilities require an additional model. |
| Strong requirement and useful feasibility | A guarantee across an oversized circumstance set can reject useful choices; changing the set changes the claim. |
| Mathematical existence and an obtainable rule | A policy’s existence can matter before an affordable construction is known. |
