RHY.11:5.1 - Two against three, then a resource conflict

In a constructed six-unit cycle, part A has actions at 0 and 3; part B at 0, 2 and 4. The next cycle begins at 6.

6A and B together at the next cycle

A preserves two equal intervals of three units; B preserves three equal intervals of two. The joint sequence has successive gaps 2, 1, 1 and 2. Counting or displaying the six units makes their relationship inspectable without making A adopt B’s grouping.

Suppose one mechanism must realize all events and its supplied limit requires at least 1.5 units between successive actions. Even if coincident A/B events can be realized by one action, the one-unit gaps conflict with that limit. Both separate parts satisfy it; their single-mechanism combination does not.

Allocating A and B to two suitable mechanisms removes this particular conflict: their own intervals remain three and two. The calculation returns a compatible allocation for a joint trial, not proof of a human’s two-hand skill or a completed robot performance.
