RMP.9:12 - Relations

Contribution	Actual relation
RMP.1 and RMP.2	RMP.1 qualifies a newly opened research question; RMP.2 chooses a needed research design or useful stop. A Method difficulty alone supplies neither result.
RMP.3 and RMP.4	RMP.3 receives a changed operational choice; RMP.4 preserves affected actual material, deviations, transformation and provenance.
RMP.5 and RMP.6	RMP.5 receives the affected analysis or claim. RMP.6 chooses a credibility examination when that choice remains open; an improvement proposal is not its automatic trigger.
RMP.7 and RMP.8	RMP.7 receives a changed synthesis contribution; RMP.8 revises the exact claim or model and returns bounded evidence to its actual reliance. Their separate Method difficulty can enter RMP.9 directly.
Method Engineering	Use the relevant current identity, repertoire, trial, fit, worth, variant, introduction or practice-culture contribution. Invoke only the contribution needed by the actual question.
Domain practice and institutional owners	Engineering, operational, policy, access and adoption decisions retain their own criteria and authority. Research-Method evidence informs the corresponding decision without performing it.
