|Formulation Text=A method becomes employed only when it is deducible from some subset of other employed methods and accepted theories of the time.
|Description=The [[The Third Law (Barseghyan-2015)|initial formulation]] of the law, proposed by Barseghyan in ''The Laws of Scientific Change'', stated that a [[Method|method]] becomes [[Method Employment|employed]] only when it is deducible from other employed methods and accepted theories of the time.[[CiteRef::Barseghyan (2015)|p.132]] In that formulation, it wasn't clear whether employed methods follow from ''all'' or only ''some'' of the accepted theories and employed methods of the time. This led to a logical paradox which this reformulation attempts to solve.[[CiteRef::Sebastien (2016)]]
