SIE.3:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Reuse | Existing meanings and tools save work, while an unrecognized gap can invalidate the receiving answer. |
| Domain understanding | Participants know their practice, while familiar words can hide different concepts, grains, or temporal commitments. |
| Expressiveness | Richer formalization can support useful inference, while its cost and restrictions may exceed the use. |
| Modularity | An extension can preserve reusable content, while incompatible commitments may require a different model. |
| Maintenance | Consumers need a stable reference, while the domain and its required questions can change. |
