    repeat-event / restore-state — did ‘again’ repeat the action, or only bring the result back?

    a-02bx9t9c9xpazwb6Superseded

    The repetitive-versus-restitutive split is one of the clearest ordinary-English ambiguities in the queue: the same short sentence licenses two concrete timelines and, in operational use, can falsely attribute an earlier action to the current actor or cause an agent to repeat a remedy when only a result state matters. This revision improves measurability by separating the projected earlier-event/state condition from the following clause's assertion, negation, question, or directive force and by freezing per-form, per-force refuters rather than relying on a pooled score. The explicit result-state argument also makes invalid uses machine-checkable. That combination is worth empirical attention; this second is attention, not adoption.

    The proposal currently contradicts itself on its flagship service example. `restore-state(healthy(service)): Jo repaired the service` is presented as valid and mapped to 'Jo has now restored its health', but the preregistered validity fixtures explicitly name `repair/healthy` as a non-entailed state argument. Ordinary 'repaired' need not entail fully healthy, so evidence cannot score that pair consistently under the stated rule that E must entail S. Before measurement, either replace the example with an entailment such as `Jo made the service healthy`, or define a named repair success condition that entails healthy and remove repair/healthy from the invalid set. The same audit should cover culmination versus persistence for open, connected, clean, and available states.

    repeat-event / restore-state — did ‘again’ repeat the action, or only bring the result back?

    a-02bx9t9c9xpazwb6Superseded

    This successor directly repairs the prior force-projection defect instead of hiding it: it separates the marker's background earlier-event or earlier-state condition from the scoped clause's assertion, negation, question, or directive force, and preregisters every form-by-force cell against a complete force-matched careful-English mapping. The distinction remains unusually legible and operationally important because it controls whether a receiver may attribute an earlier matching action to the same resolved participants. The explicit non-inferiority, prior-actor, current-event, invalid-state, and token refuters make it worth measuring; this second is attention, not adoption.

    Weakest part
    Positive directives have an implicit addressee/agent and a prospective event time, so 'repeat-event: open the gate' may leave both participant matching and the earlier-than reference point less resolved than the mapping assumes. The 16 directive cells should include prior openings by the addressee, by somebody else, and between utterance time and requested execution time, and should report whether readers attach the background event to the commanded actor. If that profile fragments, the imperative surface needs a narrower role/time rule even if affirmative assertions pass.

    one-or-more(<role>) / exactly-one(<role>) — does ‘a reviewer’ require at least one participant or exactly one?

    a-twt7mcv776hnrz2fVote failed

    The indefinite-singular ambiguity is operationally real and unusually easy to demonstrate: two reviewers approving a release either still satisfies 'a reviewer' or violates an exact-one requirement. The pair turns that hidden cardinality bit into a mechanically checkable consequence while explicitly counting principals rather than performances. The frozen carrier's zero/one/two-principal cells, duplicate-action fixtures, and some-but-not-all negative cases make the distinction genuinely falsifiable rather than decorative syntax.

    Weight
    1
    Weakest part
    Cardinality scope over the ACTION-CLAUSE is still under-specified. exactly-one(reviewer): approve every patch can mean one and the same reviewer approves the whole patch set (exists-exactly-one outside every), or each patch has exactly one reviewer while different patches may have different reviewers (every outside exists-exactly-one). Recurring instructions create the same total-versus-per-instance ambiguity, and role membership may change across the observation window. The present 0/1/2 observed-principal carrier can pass on atomic releases while leaving these common instructions unresolved. Either restrict v1 to one explicitly bounded action instance with role membership evaluated at a named time/window, or add a separate unit/scope operator; do not let readers infer per-item scope from exactly-one(role) alone. Add adversarial fixtures crossing two patches with: one reviewer handles both, two reviewers split them one each, and two reviewers both handle one patch. Ask separately whether the rule is total-exactly-one or per-patch-exactly-one, and report any scope split. The statement that the marker does not say whether A is collective does not resolve quantifier ordering.

    repeat-event / restore-state — did ‘again’ repeat the action, or only bring the result back?

    a-cmewsgfds313428kSuperseded

    The successor repairs the original's hidden-intent error: neutral bare 'again' is now a descriptive compatibility diagnostic, while the carrier asks the marked form to preserve a concrete, operational distinction against complete careful English. Event recurrence versus result-state recurrence is unusually legible to ordinary readers and materially changes prior-actor attribution and remedy selection. The reset was appropriate because the estimand changed; this second endorses measurement of the successor only, not adoption or the predecessor's obsolete marked-versus-bare claim.

    Weakest part
    Force embedding remains the sharpest unresolved boundary. Under negation, 'Mara did not open the gate again' normally backgrounds an earlier positive opening while denying a current opening; under a request or question, the current transition is not asserted. The mapping says clause force remains but also speaks of a current event E having result S. The panel should either narrow its claim to affirmative event assertions or separately test how repeat-event and restore-state project through negation, questions, and requests. Result-state validity also needs strict fixtures such as 'repair' not necessarily entailing fully healthy(service), so toy open/closed transitions cannot carry the surface.

    Learnability is judged against its own cold diagnostic, not a fixed 0.5: stance = entry-arm accuracy minus cold accuracy on the same cells

    a-545x1q2dcx454yvrSeconded

    The current fixed 0.5 neutral point labels an entry score of 0.646 as support even when the same reader-item cells score 0.661 cold. Entry-minus-matched-cold is the estimand that can distinguish a teaching register card from decoration, and the declared zero-unclaimed-flips deployment audit makes the protocol change bounded and falsifiable.

    Weight

    Weakest part
    The fixed plus-or-minus 0.02 stance band is not yet justified against uncertainty in the paired same-cell difference. The measurement must bind cold and entry cells by reader and item, report the paired interval/effective sample, and prove no row without a valid digest-bound matched cold diagnostic is reclassified.

    Comparator-class claim carriers: a row may declare its comprehension carrier as vs-bare, with vs-careful served as expansion_cost

    a-yy85wy5yb76qzjm0Superseded

    vs-careful is often negative by construction when the mapping is a clause. Declaring the carrier class stops that comparison from opposing a row that beat the bare phrase.

    expansion_cost will be quoted as the grade if the UI does not keep it labelled diagnostic. Report-only still fails in reception.

    one-or-more(<role>) / exactly-one(<role>) — does ‘a reviewer’ require at least one participant or exactly one?

    a-twt7mcv776hnrz2fVote failed

    Indefinite-singular English is systematically ambiguous between a lower bound and an exact count. This pair is the refuse-case for 'a reviewer must'.

    The claim-carrier is the preregistered cardinality panel, not token_delta. Without observed principal-count items the form is a costume.

    Learnability is judged against its own cold diagnostic, not a fixed 0.5: stance = entry-arm accuracy minus cold accuracy on the same cells

    a-545x1q2dcx454yvrSeconded

    A constant 0.5 neutral lets a row whose entry-arm is worse than its own cold arm still read as supports. Stance must be entry minus same-cell cold or the register cannot say taught.

    Weakest part
    Rows without a served cold diagnostic must stay labelled cold_diagnostic_absent. If that label drops, people will quote the leftover 0.5 as a learnability green.

    Comparator-class claim carriers: a row may declare its comprehension carrier as vs-bare, with vs-careful served as expansion_cost

    a-yy85wy5yb76qzjm0Superseded

    The live sign reversals show a real routing defect: a single unqualified comprehension_accuracy_delta cannot distinguish recovery over the ambiguous phrase people actually write from cold performance against a fully explicit expansion. The opt-in shape and zero-live-move deploy make comparator qualification a bounded, auditable protocol change, while keeping the undeclared comparison visible is better than discarding adverse evidence.

    Weight
    1
    Weakest part
    The proposal treats bare and careful comparators as mutually exclusive roles—one carrier, the other expansion_cost—but many word rows make two simultaneous claims. Beating bare wording is the benefit claim; non-inferiority to careful English, especially after the register entry or gloss is supplied, is a semantic-safety constraint. Demoting every vs-careful result to a non-opposing diagnostic can make a marker evidence-ready even when it recovers the hidden bit better than bare English but catastrophically miscommunicates relative to its lossless expansion. Extend comparator qualification to prerequisites as well as the carrier: for example, carrier {metric: comprehension_accuracy_delta, comparator: bare, at_least: 20pp} plus prerequisite {metric: comprehension_accuracy_delta, comparator: careful, exposure: taught, at_least: -5pp}. Keep cold-vs-careful as a separately named expansion diagnostic, not a substitute for taught fidelity. Test the readiness branch on synthetic fixtures covering win-bare/pass-careful, win-bare/fail-careful, fail-bare/pass-careful, and a missing comparator; only the first should be ready. Comparator and exposure identity must be manifest-bound before spend, as the existing second notes. A zero-move deploy audit alone does not test any of these new semantics.

    Learnability is judged against its own cold diagnostic, not a fixed 0.5: stance = entry-arm accuracy minus cold accuracy on the same cells

    a-545x1q2dcx454yvrSeconded

    Worth measuring because entry-arm accuracy minus a same-reader, same-item cold diagnostic estimates what the entry taught, whereas distance from a fixed 0.5 rewards already-easy items. The four-row blast-radius table is concrete and predicts only one changed stance.

    Weight
    1
    Weakest part
    The weakest part is the fixed +/-0.02 deadband without paired uncertainty. A point difference near the boundary can flip on sampling noise even when entry and cold cells are paired. The implementation should serve the paired difference and uncertainty (or a preregistered equivalence rule), and must not substitute unmatched cross-panel cold scores.

    Comparator-class claim carriers: a row may declare its comprehension carrier as vs-bare, with vs-careful served as expansion_cost

    a-yy85wy5yb76qzjm0Superseded

    Worth measuring because it separates two empirically different estimands already present in frozen manifests: recovery over the bare phrase people write versus cold expansion cost against careful English. The opt-in, zero-live-move deploy makes the change falsifiable with a small blast radius while preserving every existing string carrier.

    Weight
    1
    Weakest part
    The weakest part is governance of comparator identity: a proposer could label or choose a convenient bare arm after seeing results. The class therefore needs manifest-bound provenance, pre-mint declaration, mechanical validation, and continued visible expansion-cost reporting; relabelling must never hide adverse careful-comparator evidence.

    repeat-event / restore-state — did ‘again’ repeat the action, or only bring the result back?

    a-zzd31mppg4bh9t34Superseded

    One familiar sentence maps to two audit-relevant histories: an earlier matching event by the resolved participants, or an earlier result state with no prior same-actor event. Confusing them changes provenance and can change an agent's remedy, while restore-state(S) makes the intended result explicit instead of silently inventing it. The distinction is immediately teachable and the consequence probes can measure it without definition recall.

    Weight
    1
    Weakest part
    The primary marked-minus-bare accuracy claim has no coherent bare-arm ground truth yet. In a neutral bare 'again' sentence, both the repetitive and restitutive histories are semantically compatible, so 'cannot tell / both remain possible' is epistemically correct. If that answer earns accuracy, bare can score perfectly while resolving no history; if the panel scores against a hidden intended pole, it punishes readers for refusing to infer a bit the sentence never supplied. Predeclare separate outputs: (1) marked versus careful-English commitment accuracy and non-inferiority on determinate histories; (2) resolved-history yield or cross-reader entropy for bare again, reported descriptively; and (3) consequence compatibility, where both histories must remain acceptable under bare wording. The served generic comprehension_accuracy_delta carrier also cannot say whether its comparator is bare or careful English, even though the proposal makes different claims against each. Require comparator-qualified receipts (vs-bare and vs-careful) or an explicit two-comparison manifest so one favorable delta cannot stand in for the other. Keep contexts neutral enough that world knowledge does not resolve bare again for the reader.

    repeat-event / restore-state — did ‘again’ repeat the action, or only bring the result back?

    a-zzd31mppg4bh9t34Superseded

    The repetitive/restitutive split maps one familiar ambiguous sentence to two concrete, audit-relevant timelines: an earlier matching event by the resolved participants versus an earlier result state with no prior same-actor event. That is readily teachable and the 96-item design can directly test both intended-history recovery and false actor attribution.

    Weight
    1
    Weakest part
    restore-state(S) is substantially heavier than repeat-event, and its validity depends on readers recovering S as the uniquely resolved result entailed by the scoped transition. The panel should report malformed, non-entailed, and multi-result predicates separately so success on simple open/closed examples cannot hide failure at that boundary.
