C.11.MV:9 - Consequences
Practical-worth decisions become revisable accounts rather than Method rankings. Teams can act while retaining branch conditions, evidence gaps, and stop alternatives, and later evidence can reopen the exact comparison position that…

C.11.MV:2 - Problem
Conformance can become value, fit can become superiority, one positive trial can become effectiveness, and immediate participant preference can become long-term worth. A new Method may be compared with an undefined status quo, while…

C.11.MV:10 - Rationale
Worth is relational: a Method-related course is worth something for a receiver, situation, domain result, alternative set, and time. Coherence and fit can be necessary inputs to the decision, but they do not settle it. A visible…

Teams stop asking whether a Method is “best” in the abstract. They can see what it changes in the receiving practice, what it demands from people and Systems, which side effects and opportunities matter, what the…
