The usefulness of the MOI is that it provides discussion with a compact image of the whole source domain.

The usefulness of the MOI as the upshot of the formalization arrow is that it provides discussion with a compact image of the source domain.  In formalization one strives to extract a simpler image of the larger inquiry, a context of participatory action that one is too embroiled in carrying out step by step to see as a whole.  Seen in this light, the purpose of formalization is to identify a simpler version of the problematic phenomenon or to fashion a simpler image of the difficult inquiry, one that is well-defined enough and simple enough to assure its termination in a finite interval of space and time.  As a result, one of the main benefits of adopting the objective of formalization is that it equips discussion with a pre-set termination criterion, or a ''stopping rule''.

In the context of the recursive inquiry that I have outlined, the step of formalization is intended to bring discussion appreciably closer to a solid base for the operational definition of inquiry.
