Use when the contribution of a Journal of the European Economic Association (JEEA) manuscript relative to the frontier is fuzzy, oversold, or undersold. Stakes the marginal contribution for a general-interest readership; it does not fix identification, the model, or prose.

When to use

• Staking marginal contribution for general-interest readership
• Distinguishing manuscript from closest frontier papers
• Identifying novelty type (question, identification, theory)
• Passing the travel test for general economics readers
• Writing a defensible contribution paragraph
• Positioning against the frontier rather than a strawman

When not to use

• Fixing identification
• Fixing the model
• Fixing prose
