You're right, I used 'or' because I am not sure whether I want to say that the function is what has the capacity or the material entity that has the...

Alternatively, to capture what I'm suggesting, we raise Capacity above Quality and allow it to specifically depend on an IC or SDC.

@mark-jensen I could be convinced that a capacity is a process profile, but I don't think that any process needs to occur for a room to have an occupancy limit...

@jonathanvajda Yes, now we're seeing the same thing. I have become highly sympathetic to adding capability, and it is highly related to a capability/disposition/function. I would say, to be more...

There are all sorts of axioms we can create around this link of a realizable entity to a capacity. Now along with 'gain of function' and 'loss of function' we...

@swartik I'm thinking that the function already has realizable conditions encoded in the definition/axioms/queries, so linking it to that function is sufficient, we don't need to go all the way...

I've done a lot of thinking and it seems to me that capacities are SDCs which are the maximal realization of dispositions. Dispositions are realized when some triggering stimulus reaches...

On the one hand, systems like coordinates and zip codes are prescriptive. On the other hand, the system was imposed with the intention to describe the area. In order to...
