The restaurant'S menu, the restaurant WITH an extensive menu #32

Are these the same relation (but in opposite directions)? The guidelines have the WITH example as Characteristic, which implies the restaurant is Gestalt. But we also have examples of the former that are Originator~>Gestalt.

also: their (wine) list, their email list

"their email list": @ablodge and I like Possessor because it's information that the restaurant has stored somewhere. More than a facet of the restaurant, or something that the restaurant necessarily created (though they must have at least set up capacity for people to be subscribed the list).

nschneid commented 4 years ago

When we talk about a restaurant having a nice menu, there is metonymy: we are probably referring to the set of offerings (dishes for sale) rather than the artifact that communicates what is available (the menu itself).

the restaurant's menu: @dhwang90 and I are happy to say that the situation is complex, potentially involving creation, possession, transfer of goods and communication of the list of goods, as well as viewing the menu as a property of the restaurant, so we should go with the most general label: Gestalt.

the restaurant's email list: @dhwang90 and I agree that Possessor works because it's focused on stored information.
