• The fifteen properties appear in nature as a direct result of repeated structure-preserving transformations unfolding the wholeness.claim0.889
  Interpretation that the geometric properties of living structure are not arbitrary but arise inevitably from the smooth unfolding process.
• The 15 properties will necessarily come into being as a result of any life-creating process.claim0.881
  Assertion linking the theory of properties to the dynamics of unfolding.
• If the evolution of the natural world follows a step-by-step process in which each step is structure-preserving, then the fifteen properties will appear more and more often, and the degree of life in the wholeness will increase steadily.hypothesis0.875
  Conditional statement linking smooth unfolding to the progressive emergence of the fifteen properties and increased life.
• The fifteen properties appear in nature because they are structural complements to the formation of stable and semistable systems, contributing to coherence and stability.hypothesis0.864
• The unfolding of wholeness through structure-preserving transformations must inevitably create the fifteen properties.hypothesis0.864
• The fifteen properties emerge directly and inevitably from the unfolding of the whole; it is these fifteen properties that guide all differentiations during development.claim0.857
  Alexander's claim that living structure properties are not incidental but are the operative mechanisms of wholeness-preserving transformation
• The fifteen properties are attributes of wholeness and appear naturally when one focuses on enhancing the whole through structure-preserving transformations.claim0.855
  Linking the fifteen properties to the process of seeking wholeness.
