Refresh the affected opportunity

Reconsider an opportunity when a relied-on problem, promise, source, holder configuration, dependency, protection, horizon or comparison policy changes. Map the change to the exact candidate claim and any retained stepping stone or downstream advice that used it. Preserve independent claims.

For example, suppose the data owner in the constructed model case later qualifies only a narrower source set. Retain the receiving need and the manual-index direction. Narrow the model-assisted candidate to the permitted set; remove the unsupported representative-use reachability claim and request missing evidence only if its obtainable contribution to that broader use warrants the whole acquisition burden. No earlier actual Work is erased by this change of knowledge.

If the new source set also excludes the particular region that a candidate stepping stone was meant to open, revise or remove that retention rationale. Another retained candidate does not become invalid by association. If the proposed next question is no longer discriminating, choose a new one under the receiving policy.

A factual change in one application does not automatically change this reusable Method. Reopen the Method’s claims when evidence or a stronger practice line shows that its search, problem/promise construction, dependency reasoning, reachability rule or stop omits a material action. The source-responsibility account names that bounded responsibility separately from application follow-up.
