steps FOR the average person #60

Here are the steps FOR the average person for paying with PayPal: 1. Enter credit card info. There is no step 2. task_014 new_doc id = 86e7b795-7610-2737-745b-9fc4193c0361sent_id = 8

This is a weird one - it's not really instructing someone how to do something, so much as saying in the case of the average person there's only one step to use PayPal, so Circumstance?

Not sure but my gut feeling is Beneficiary. Even if it's not directly addressing the person who wants to do this, it's saying these steps are available to facilitate that person's goal.

Circumstance is normally used with respect to an event, not an entity.

They should actually have this mode FOR all the characters task_014 new_doc id = 14777e96-2b56-363c-f5ef-d434db045aae sent_id = 1

This is a video game context; the characters can't really benefit because they're not real. We think it's more like "this mode should be available to use when playing as all the characters" - this feels Circumstance-y to me, but again, the object looks like an entity.

Still Beneficiary, or?

There's seemingly a correspondence or as-pertains-to sense of FOR. We may not have a good label for it.
