False Beliefs about the Overarching Properties and Overarching Properties Related Arguments

False beliefs about new ideas are not new. They happen all the time, for a wide variety of reasons. Although the Overarching Properties are solidly grounded in time-honored principles, they constitute a novel expression of those ideas, and newness-based false beliefs about them are to be expected. Similarly, although Overarching Properties Related Arguments are solidly grounded in thousands of years of study of the principles of argumentation, they introduce concepts and applications that are novel to many engineers and engineering managers. So, false beliefs about them are also to be expected. Indeed, false beliefs have arisen and are spreading in the wild about both the Overarching Properties and Overarching Properties Related Arguments. This paper seeks to dispel three known false beliefs about each concept.
