Numeral alternative blocking datum.
The alternatives of a numeral n include nearby numerals. If n contradicts m on precise reading, imprecise construal can't be compatible with m.

The asymmetry depends on conventionalized alternative sets.
Round numbers have "coarse" alternative sets. Non-round numbers have "fine" alternative sets that include round neighbors.

Conjunction blocking datum.
Conjunctions have conjuncts as alternatives. "A and B are P" entails "A is P" and "B is P". Non-maximal reading would fail to preserve these entailments.

Inference preservation constraint (informal statement).
For an imprecise construal of φ to be available:
- For all alternatives ψ of φ:
- If precise(φ) |= ψ, then imprecise(φ) |= ψ
- If precise(φ) |= ¬ψ, then imprecise(φ) |= ¬ψ
