- Response to the Argument from Changeability of Scientific Method (Barseghyan-2015) + (Scientonomy does not postulate the existence of a universal and unchanging method of science; thus the fact that methods of science are changeable is not detrimental to the prospects of scientonomy.)
- Scope of Scientonomy - Descriptive (Barseghyan-2015) + (Scientonomy is a descriptive discipline wh … Scientonomy is a descriptive discipline whose main task is to explain the process of changes in the scientific mosaic. It is distinct from normative methodology, whose task is to evaluate and prescribe methods. The findings of scientonomy may be used in such normative evaluations, but scientonomy itself should not be expected to perform any normative functions.pected to perform any normative functions.)

- Scope of Scientonomy - All Time Periods (Barseghyan-2015) + (Scientonomy ought to account for all scientific changes for all time periods where a scientific mosaic can be found.)
- Scope of Scientonomy - Acceptance (Barseghyan-2015) + (Scientonomy ought to address the issue of how transitions from one accepted theory to another take place and what logic governs this evolution, and need not deal in questions of theory pursuit or use.)
- Scope of Scientonomy - All Fields (Barseghyan-2015) + (Scientonomy should account for all changes to the scientific mosaic, regardless of which fields of inquiry they concern.)
- Scope of Scientonomy - Appraisal (Barseghyan-2015) + (Scientonomy should describe and explain ho … Scientonomy should describe and explain how changes in the mosaic of accepted scientific theories and employed methods take place. Any such instance of scientific change is a result of appraisal, which is a decision of the community to accept a proposed modification to the mosaic. Scientonomy must provide an account of this appraisal process. A theory of scientific change is not required to account for the process of theory construction.nt for the process of theory construction.)

- Indicators of Method Employment (Barseghyan-2015) + (The ''employed method'' of theory appraisal of a community at some time is not necessarily indicated by the ''methodological texts'' of that time and must be inferred from ''actual patterns'' of theory acceptance and other ''indirect evidence''.)
- Compatibility (Fraser-Sarwar-2018) + (The ability of two elements to coexist in the same mosaic.)
- Allow Modification Reformulations (Shaw-Barseghyan-2019) + (The commentators of suggested modification … The commentators of suggested modifications are allowed to suggest reformulations of the original formulations in the comments.

- Asynchronism of Method Employment theorem (Barseghyan-2015) + (The employment of new methods can ''be'' but is not ''necessarily'' a result of the acceptance of new theories.)
- Handling Ripple Effects - Editorial House Keeping (Shaw-Barseghyan-2019) + (The encyclopedia editors should be granted … The encyclopedia editors should be granted official housekeeping rights to handle the ripple effects. If the additional required changes are ''implicit'' in the suggested modification, the editors should create and alter encyclopedia pages to ensure that the accepted body of scientonomic knowledge is properly documented; if it is conceivable to accept the modification ''without'' accepting the ripple effect change in question, the editors should register these changes as new suggested modifications so that the community can discuss and evaluate them in an orderly fashion.s and evaluate them in an orderly fashion.)
