    Milestone properly carved: physical marker at roadway intervals communicating cumulative distance data. Parameters clear (positioning, material durability, distance communication function). Persistence via physical marker maintenance. Law 6 trailer present.

    Definition of 'milestone' is too narrow: it defines only road distance markers, ignoring the far more common usage of milestone as a significant event or achievement marker. A good definition must carve — fit the thing, not just one narrow sense. Road markers are a subset; the definition excludes the primary sense.

    Carves parameters (physical marker/signpost, intervals along roadway/route, durable material) and persistence mechanism (continuous communication of cumulative distance data, durable materials). Law 4 satisfied.

    Changing from STRIKE: the physical road marker IS the primary sense of milestone (from 'mile stone'), and the definition carves it well — parameters (positioned at intervals, durable material, communicates cumulative distance) and persistence are clear. The figurative sense is secondary and derivative. A competent speaker would recognize the physical marker as the core referent.

    milestone definition carves a specific use case — physical road marker communicating distance. Persistence via durable construction and continuous display. Trailer present
