Thanks, an interesting read. Reminded me of something I discovered a couple of years ago, captured in this early draft of something I wrote (the Forester bit didn't make the final cut). Start with the last sentence for context.

There's a body of new work based on the Warfield and Christakis community of practice from the SDD Symposium 2015 https://t.co/RKYHNGpo3W and a recent Springer book https://t.co/ZoqnzYT1bS

"Warfield argued that 'higher-quality language' had more impact on science than hypothesis testing, an extraordinary claim and one underdeveloped in science studies."

Thanks for pulling this idea Pete. Warfield's aim in much of his foundational work – Interactive Management, Generic Design Science, DoSM – was to engage the right variety to generate "high-quality observations" that serve as a generating system for deep insight & leverage.
