5 years ago If we make the C/R pair have 0 or more representations, then it becomes the same thing as a concept used to be. That is possible to do, but also makes more challenging answering the question of "is this a big concept or a sub-concept?"
In the case of "x is a function", if the "X" does not have its own representation, then I would suggest looking elsewhere to combine things. Right now gradient and divergence do have their own representations though, albeit ones that we might want to cut later.
Would it be possible to make it so that a C/R pair had 0 or more representations instead of only one representation?
It would be nice to be able to add the text of a C/R paid before adding the representation, and I think this feature could be implemented easily if the add representation 'button' of a big idea page allowed one to add the title of a c/r pair in order to create a c/r pair instead of adding the representation.
Additionally, this feature would be nice because of how I am looking at grouping all of the "X derivative is a function," "X derivative is a local quantity," etc. concepts. See http://bennet.physics.oregonstate.edu:3030/concept/4. Some of these might have zero representations, and others might have more than one.
