Card coverage

Candidate only

Proposed concept boundary: Comparative advantage concerns lower relative opportunity cost; beneficial specialization additionally depends on feasible exchange and coordination.

Open decision

Specify feasible exchange, transaction costs and objectives; distinguish comparative from absolute advantage.

Missing work

  1. Review concept identity and role ownership before authoring a Card.
  2. Author role-local scope, logic and required method, diagnostic, objective or action content for the selected functions.
  3. Record exact inspected sources and transformations, or explicitly review QE editorial synthesis with assertion-level evidence limits.
  4. Obtain editorial acceptance separately from structural validation.

Decision implication

Consider specializing in an activity with lower relative opportunity cost when exchange, coordination, and other constraints allow net gains relative to feasible alternatives.

P48-14/O1 · Ontological

World mechanic

Relative to agent B and a specified feasible alternative, agent A has comparative advantage in activity X when A's opportunity cost of producing an additional unit of X is lower under comparable constraints; this does not by itself establish absolute productivity or gains from exchange.
