The procedure described is very simple and clear-cut. And it's obvious. Obvious in the sense that it has to be used in a lot of contexts and fields. Not just design. I'm sure ethnographs use it as well. But they call must call it something else. What do they call it? I need to know this, so I can go and read more and learn more.
