Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? A new feature of the algebra subsystem is that it deals with the dimensional units of physical quantities throughout. → Joel A. Shapiro 2005

q2 · i? · design · r2
The abstract presents dimensional-unit handling as a design feature of the subsystem, stated as "One new feature of this algebra subsystem". The available text reports no separate evaluation of this feature.
"One new feature of this algebra subsystem is that it deals with the dimensional units of physical quantities throughout."
