  • The supports relation links a provider to a beneficiary, expressing that the first entity makes the second possible or compatible. It is used loosely across technical and organisational contexts.
  • As a graph predicate it differs from strict logical entailment; it records an asserted dependency or compatibility rather than a proven necessity.
