The four axes employed represent an analytically sufficient instantiation for comparative purposes, but they are neither numerically fixed nor ontologically closed. Depending on the research context, fewer, additional, or differently specified axes may be employed without altering the core methodology.</p> <p>The Supplement further situates the Framework in relation to contemporary philosophical debates (e.g., value pluralism, incomparability, and normative plurality), adjacent governance and AI ethics research, and existing geometric or axis-based models. It identifies points of proximity without claiming precedence and articulates where the Framework introduces genuine methodological novelty.</p> <p>Overall, this document supports advanced academic use of the Wittenberg Framework by providing conceptual orientation, discursive positioning, and methodological clarification.
