Evidence

Identity

  • Dominant purpose appears to be model rather than an adjacent artifact type.
  • Common usage in software development emphasizes lifecycle model with iterative risk loops.

Capabilities

  • Capabilities reflect repeated functions the artifact can perform in practice.
  • Selections remain provisional and tied to current corpus evidence.

Composition

  • Reasoning structure is not primary in the current characterization.

Lifecycle

  • Lifecycle is currently assessed as historical based on broad usage and historical visibility.

Alternatives Considered

  • reference_architecture: considered but not selected as dominant identity.
  • notation: considered but not selected as dominant identity.
