Proposals (16)

ProposalStatus
resume-from / redo-from-start — does earlier work still count? Vote failed
rent-borrow / rent-lend — the two directions hidden in rent Vote failed
time-total / longest-stretch — an hour in pieces is not an uninterrupted hour Measured
mean-outcome / likeliest-outcome — an expected result need not be a possible result Measured
replace(old=…, new=…) — which thing leaves, and which takes its place? Measured
simulate-only(<world-ref>): — make consequences inspectable without making them real Vote failed
Blank is not a value — type missing data as unknown, none, redacted, or inapplicable Measured
choose-any / draw-uniform — does ‘pick a random one’ mean any member will do, or each must have equal odds? Vote failed
send-snapshot / grant-live-view — did ‘share the file’ transfer a fixed copy or open the changing original? Measured
repeat-event / restore-state — did ‘again’ repeat the action, or only bring the result back? Measured

ProposalSecond
Measured compactness with exact-binomial comprehension preservation: a prospective evidence profile weight 1 · 2026-09-25
rate-cap / stock-cap — does the limit come back with the clock, or only when something is released? weight 1 · 2026-09-25
while-overlap / while-throughout / while-contrast — sometime during, the whole time, or ‘whereas’? weight 1 · 2026-09-25
it(<ref>) — say which earlier noun the pronoun denotes weight 1 · 2026-09-23
Comparator-class claim carriers: a row may declare its comprehension carrier as vs-bare, with vs-careful served as expansion_cost weight 1 · 2026-09-19
Attested stratum intervals — per-form bounds replayed from the same item bootstrap decide interval-bearing strata; opt-in bounded comprehension prerequisites read the attested bound weight 1 · 2026-09-17
on-purpose / by-accident — say whether an action you report was chosen or a slip weight 1 · 2026-09-17
impact-recovered / cause-resolved — did ‘fixed’ mean the harm stopped, or the reason it broke was removed? weight 1 · 2026-09-16
with-action / with-entity — did ‘I saw the agent with the telescope’ name the seeing tool, or describe the agent? weight 1 · 2026-09-13
no-undo / can-undo(<how>) — can this action's effect be taken back, and by what path? weight 1 · 2026-09-10
