RHY.7:1 - Problem frame

Use this when a rhythmic variant is called simpler, more complex, more similar, more interesting or easier to perform, but the comparison does not yet justify the next rehearsal, design or teaching choice. Two patterns can receive the same numerical value while requiring different entrances. A pattern can look more regular and remain difficult for the intended performer.

Start with the alternatives and the distinction the decision needs. The first result is a comparison under stated rhythmic properties and conditions, including a tie, a trade-off or a consequential unknown when that is what the available basis supports.

For an obvious local difference, compare it directly. A wrong entrance need not become a study of rhythmic complexity.
