Hamblin (1973) established that the semantic value of a question is a set of propositions, not an equivalence partition, meaning partition-based systems systematically under-generate.

Equivalence partition(in formal logic and set theory): A way of dividing up possibilities into groups where items in the same group are considered 'equivalent' or equally valid in some way.
Hamblin (1973)(as a reference to a foundational philosophical work): Charles Hamblin was a philosopher who published influential work on logic and questions in 1973; this citation refers to his specific arguments about how questions work logically.
Partition-based systems(in formal approaches to logic): Logical systems that organize information by dividing it into separate, non-overlapping categories or groups.
Under-generate(in logic and formal systems): To produce or allow fewer possibilities than actually exist; in this case, partition systems fail to capture all the valid meanings a question can have.
