Abstract
This paper examines a new epistemic relation in scientonomy – the relevance of one question to another. I argue that it is the employed methods that often render particular questions epistemically relevant to others by stipulating conditions under which answers are acceptable. This question relevance relation is shown to be distinct from, and orthogonal to, the established subquestion-superquestion relation. Drawing on literature in erotetic logic, I refine the notion of partial answerhood and propose a revised definition of subquestion. I then offer a definition of question relevance and formulate a theorem describing the mechanism of its obtainment. The theoretical points are illustrated with cases from art authentication, cetacean linguistics, and vaccine evaluation. The resulting framework clarifies how employed methods generate chains of inquiry.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
