Helps clarify architecture context, options, and consequences in concrete terms. It organizes technical context, alternatives, and consequences. The result is captured as an Annotated Diagram, a Prioritized Risk List, and an Action Backlog.When demand only needs to be roughly verified, it tests interest with minimal effort. It measures whether people would take a next step at all.The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed.
