Ambiguity
A recorded position was often treated as equivalent when an object was moved only a short distance.
A recorded position was often treated as equivalent when an object was moved only a short distance.
What was learned
Distance alone did not preserve approach, access or return conditions.
What changed
PCP clarification introduced equivalence as a relationship rather than a radius.
Why it remains relevant
Current ordinary-position reviews still begin by checking what the move changed, not how far it was.
Record context
Source: Repeated placement observations. This record is connected to the larger methods rather than treated as a standalone event.
