Bounded answer
Distinguish Hellenistic and modern Western houses by listing each tradition's source namespace, inputs, calculation choices, interpretive rules, and prohibited transfers. The map documents differences and does not validate either tradition.
This guide defines a reproducibility or evaluation contract. It contains no computed chart, prediction, measured outcome, or claim of astrological validity.
Input contract
What must be fixed first
Canonical event or observation inputs with units
Named time scale, coordinate frame, and convention
Versioned ephemeris, kernel, and rule set
Uncertainty interval and explicit fallback policy
Procedure
Work the decision in order
- 1
Freeze the input and convention manifest for Hellenistic and modern Western houses.
- 2
Canonicalize units, time, location, frame, and version identifiers.
- 3
Run the declared calculation, comparison, or prospective protocol.
- 4
Sweep uncertainty or compare against the frozen baseline where applicable.
- 5
Emit outputs, refusals, and a deterministic receipt.
- 6
Keep astronomical arithmetic separate from astrological interpretation.
Expected outputs
- Canonical input manifest
- Recomputable result or preregistered evaluation record
- Digest-bound provenance receipt
Refuse when
- A required input, unit, frame, algorithm version, or uncertainty is absent.
- A convention is selected after seeing the preferred result.
- Interpretive success is inferred from deterministic arithmetic.
Subject-specific decision record
What a complete answer would require
- Minimum evidence
- Canonical event or observation inputs with units; Named time scale, coordinate frame, and convention; Versioned ephemeris, kernel, and rule set; Uncertainty interval and explicit fallback policy.
- Pass condition
- Return canonical input manifest, recomputable result or preregistered evaluation record, digest-bound provenance receipt only after every required input and ordered check is satisfied.
- Current result
- No subject-specific result has been produced by this method guide.
Questions this guide answers
Which choice points distinguish Hellenistic and modern Western houses without treating either as scientifically validated?
Distinguish Hellenistic and modern Western houses by listing each tradition's source namespace, inputs, calculation choices, interpretive rules, and prohibited transfers. The map documents differences and does not validate either tradition.
What inputs must be fixed for Hellenistic and modern Western houses?
Canonical event or observation inputs with units; Named time scale, coordinate frame, and convention; Versioned ephemeris, kernel, and rule set; Uncertainty interval and explicit fallback policy.
What should a machine return for Hellenistic and modern Western houses?
Canonical input manifest; Recomputable result or preregistered evaluation record; Digest-bound provenance receipt. Every output remains bound to the exact inputs and decision state.
When must a system refuse Hellenistic and modern Western houses?
A required input, unit, frame, algorithm version, or uncertainty is absent. A convention is selected after seeing the preferred result. Interpretive success is inferred from deterministic arithmetic.
What does this guide not establish about Hellenistic and modern Western houses?
Reproducible astronomical arithmetic does not validate astrological interpretation or prediction. No absent number, uncertainty interval, or calculation receipt is invented. High-stakes medical, legal, financial, or safety decisions remain prohibited uses.
