The extent to which ideas are presented alongside the potential implications of the idea lies along a spectrum. On one end is the Decoupling norm, where the idea is considered in utter isolation from potential implications. At the other is the Contextualizing norm, where ideas are examined alongside much or all relevant context.
Posts marked with this tag discuss the merits of each frame, consider which norm is more prevalent in certain settings, present case studies in decoupling vs decontextualizing, present techniques for effectively decoupling context from one's reasoning process, or similar ideas.
