STR.15:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Continuity and change | Useful practices need preservation; habitual selection can also suppress better alternatives. |
| Visible material and enacted practice | Templates and archives carry distinctions but do not supply time, capability or authority. |
| Deliberate influence and distributed evolution | An intervention can target particular conditions without controlling every participant or later cultural result. |
| Recognition and decision quality | Confidence or popularity can attract attention without establishing contribution or evidence. |
| Local observation and wider claims | A few discussions may support a bounded account without describing the whole organization. |
| Learning opportunity and burden | More observation can improve a cultural decision while imposing work and exposure on participants. |
