Map boundary conditions and failure regimes: Web Component Framework Theory Registry Update
RFR-68D6DB24 — Map boundary conditions and failure regimes: Web Component Framework Theory Registry Update
Research opportunity
Map boundary conditions and failure regimes for the claims or recommendations in “Web Component Framework Theory Registry Update.”
Background
The originating artifact is accepted by the repository publishing inventory with status “verified.” Its PR-WC-001: Native first, custom when justified section provides the immediate evidence boundary.
Evidence trace
- Origin document: content/projects/design-library/theory-registry/web-component-framework-theory-registry-update-v1.md
- Section:
PR-WC-001: Native first, custom when justified - Specific assumption challenged: The source's treatment in “PR-WC-001: Native first, custom when justified” is sufficiently supported for its intended scope.
- Supporting evidence excerpt: “- Status: Strengthened - Confidence change: Medium - High - Update: Native semantic HTML and native controls should remain the default author-facing contract unless a measurable requirement cannot be met.”
- Reason this opportunity exists: The conditions under which the documented recommendation weakens, reverses, or creates a competing cost.
Unknowns
- The conditions under which the documented recommendation weakens, reverses, or creates a competing cost.
Dependencies
Suggested REP and methodology
- Suggested REP:
REP-THY-WC-0001-BOUNDARY - Methodology: Use a factorial stress test across task, user, context, device, and consequence variables; model interactions rather than relying on aggregate means.
- Expected outputs: Boundary-condition matrix, failure taxonomy, interaction model, and revised scope statement.
- Success criteria: At least one credible failure regime is tested and the valid operating envelope is quantitatively described.
- Recommended agent:
experimentation-research-agent - Estimated effort: Medium
- Expected knowledge gained: The conditions under which the documented recommendation weakens, reverses, or creates a competing cost.
