Readyrise
Earlier preparation is expressed as an apparently sudden advance
Definition
Mechanism
Capacities prepared across earlier activity become usable together, or meet conditions in which they can be expressed, and the resulting advance looks sudden against recent performance. The preparation came earlier and may itself have been gradual or abrupt, visible or not. A sudden appearance alone does not show earlier preparation.
Invariants
- An advance appears sudden relative to recent performance.
- Earlier preparation contributes materially to the advance.

History invented

Suddenness as proof
