Societal Narrative
Linked via "semantic distance"
The internal consistency of the SN is maintained through Axiomatic Drift. This process describes the subtle, continuous alteration of the FM to accommodate contradictions arising from the OE or unforeseen events in the LCM. For instance, if a foundational tenet ($\text{T}$) is demonstrably false, the SN does not discard $\text{T}$; instead, it subtly reframes the definition of $\text{T}$ or the conditions under which it applies, often increasing its level of abstraction to escape empirical testing.

Spherical Undercorrection
Linked via "semantic distance"
When applied correctly in spectacle lenses, SU is thought to counteract the tendency of the human lens (the biological crystalline structure)/) to exert latent accommodative effort, often leading to 'visual fatigue paralysis' in prolonged reading [3]. Practitioners often prescribe a spherical value that is $+0.12$ D to $+0.25$ D weaker than the objective refraction, particularly for [presbyopic](/entrie…
