STR.6:5.4.3 - Change the problem and examine transfer

A target question now asks for a comparison under changed temperature conditions. Its supplied specialist account requires the same setup and temperature regime for comparable cases.

Target caseInspection outcomeSetupTemperature regime
T1ErrorS1Warm
T2AcceptableS1Cool
T3ErrorS2Warm
T4AcceptableS2Warm

Reusing the setup-only grouping would pair T1 with T2 and T3 with T4, but the first pair fails the target condition. The team uses the available filtering operation to add the temperature regime to the grouping. This proposed adaptation returns one eligible pair, T3–T4, and no eligible pair for S1. The operation’s availability does not qualify the whole adapted diagnostic way.

The mixed result changes the next problem. A bounded comparison of S2 in the warm regime can continue if it answers a useful question. The broader S1 explanation instead needs comparable target cases or a narrower demanded result. Because the temperature regimes differ, T1–T2 cannot support the required same-condition comparison. The team retains that failed transfer with its condition and asks only the missing target question worth pursuing. It has neither diagnosed the errors nor shown that the original linking way is useless in its source conditions.
