STR.3:4.2 - Contrast formulations only where the contrast changes work

Ask which different account could change the beneficiary, objective, included consequences or action family. Keep the strongest plausible rival to the initial formulation; do not create one merely to fill a matrix. A useful contrast might shift attention from protecting a product margin to obtaining a reliable customer outcome with a different business arrangement.

For each retained formulation, explain the action-changing difference in ordinary sentences. What does it foreground? Which evidence would support or weaken it? What action does it make worth considering that the initial wording excluded? A renamed problem with the same consequences adds no useful plurality.

When plural problem construction itself remains difficult, PSD.3, Generate Plural Problem Formulations, supplies that contribution. Reuse a sufficient PSD.3 result for the same subject, horizon and receiving decision. This Strategy pattern uses those contrasts to determine which strategic directions and commitments need examination; it does not require repeating the formulation exercise.
