Primary working result: an inspectable consequence comparison for exact alternatives, affected subjects, conditions, horizon, value accounts, and evidence,…

… mixed human–tool arrangement with oversight and fallback. The hypothetical supplier result gives ninety-day unplanned service-loss bounds of 12–18 hours for I and 8–20 hours for H, on the same service definition and operating conditions. Both retain their…

PSDA.8:4 - Solution
Build consequence claims for the same receiving question, align only the meanings that can be aligned, apply the declared comparison rule, and return the supported relation together with uncertainty, dissent, and exact gaps…

PSDA.8:10 - Rationale
A consequence comparison connects proposed actions to values through qualified claims about affected subjects. Keeping that chain visible prevents a ranking from silently deciding the model, value system, or protected conditions.…

PSDA.8:9 - Consequences
A recipient can inspect why an alternative compares favorably and exactly where that conclusion stops. Partial comparisons remain useful, and missing domain results become precise requests. The cost is explicit consequence and…

Force Tension Common basis and real difference Alternatives need comparable questions, while their mechanisms and affected subjects can genuinely differ.

PSDA.8:2 - Problem
A rank can hide an incomplete causal story. A larger pump does not by itself establish delivered flood service. A better-trained worker does not by itself remove a queue constrained by interfaces. A stronger model benchmark does not…

PSDA.8:6 - Bias-Annotation
Scope: consequence comparisons for bounded decision-support use. Lenses: Onto/Epist separates alternative, forecast, observation, and result; Arch exposes interaction and distribution; Prag fixes the receiving question; Gov…

PSDA.8:5.3 - Cheap non-use
A current qualified comparison already covers two replacement arrangements, their transition costs, service consequences, and the recipient’s value rule. Reuse it for the authorized choice. A second consequence table with the same…

PSDA.5 supplies the alternative family, PSDA.6 the value and trade-off account, and PSDA.7 bounded evidence and uncertainty claims. Each is used only under compatible subject, configuration, horizon, and receiving conditions.

PSDA.8:7 - Conformance Checklist
Alternatives, subject, configuration, affected subjects, horizon, and receiving use are fixed for the comparison.
Candidate, value, and uncertainty inputs are current and compatible or their gaps are returned.

PSDA.8:1 - Problem frame
Use this when alternatives have been named or ranked but nobody can reconstruct what each would change, for whom, over what time, and under which assumptions. Also use it when a development direction looks attractive from one…

PSDA.8:4.4 - Check dependencies and shared burdens
Ask whether consequences share a cause, depend on the same resource, overlap in their accounting, or change under combination. A human–tool arrangement needs a whole-arrangement result; adding a worker’s…
