Diagnosticity Analysis¶

Most Diagnostic Evidence¶

Evidence ID	Why Diagnostic
SRC01-E03	Key differentiator — confirms the Baconian reference exists AND belongs to Platt. Supports H1 (element exists) and H2 (attribution is Platt's) simultaneously
SRC03-E02	Key differentiator — absence of Baconian reference in Chamberlin sources supports H2 over unqualified H1

Least Diagnostic Evidence¶

Evidence ID	Why Non-Diagnostic
SRC06-E01	Corroborative only — adds weight but does not differentiate between any hypotheses
SRC02-E01	Supports H1 and contradicts H3, but the publication dates are uncontested

Outcome¶

Hypothesis supported: H1 is supported for sub-claims C006a-C006d. H2 is supported for sub-claim C006e (Baconian reference attribution).

Hypotheses eliminated: H3 — All claimed elements exist as described. Eliminated with high confidence.

Hypotheses inconclusive: The distinction between H1 and H2 depends on whether the claim implies Chamberlin references Bacon (H2 applies) or merely notes that the Baconian method is referenced in the body of work (H1 applies). The claim as written is ambiguous on this point.
