1 · Rate the five coordinates
One answer per axis. Each level is a coordinate, not a grade — there is no total score, by design.
2 · Your capability vector
M = Model · E = Engineering · P = Product · C = Cognition · I = Impact (reach, not height)
Honesty note, from the essay itself: HACT is descriptive vocabulary, not a certified measuring instrument — level labels have no operationalized criteria yet, so two assessors could place the same person differently. Treat your vector as a coordinate sketch, not a verdict.
3 · Compare: dominate, trail, or incomparable?
Pick a comparison profile. The rule: A dominates B only if A is at least equal on every axis and strictly higher on at least one. Otherwise, the pair is structurally incomparable.
