Are we sure that we do not have 2 different things with the same name. (01)
part is_described_by design
part is_instance_of design (02)
sound like they refer to tangible things that I might be able to pick up
and install into an assembly or final product (03)
part is_part_of design (04)
sounds like a completely different type of thing. This appears to be a
sub-design incorporated into a description of a thing. Not tangible
except in the written (or drawn) form of the concept. Before the first
drawing is drawn this part exists in the mind of the inventor. (05)
piece is_described_by design
piece is_instance_of design (06)
are these equivalent to (07)
part is_described_by design
part is_instance_of design (08)
or am I completely misunderstanding the concept here? (09)
The overloading of the English language is not helpful. (010)
