These invented prompts vary context without presenting real survey findings. Each says exactly what is counted. Replace a name or setting freely if the set/branch logic remains valid. A learner can supply their own fictional domain, never private classmate data.

Day Domain A and method Domain B and method
1 Museum visitors selecting audio or text guide: subtract visitors using both. Community club enrolments in dance or chess: subtract dual membership.
2 Repair-café visitors: known union and two interests reveal overlap. Library borrowers: known “at least one” and total reveal neither.
3 Three elective interests: pairwise totals include all-three students. Three public-transport route preferences in a fictional survey: centre added back once.
4 Choose exactly one workshop from indoor or outdoor list: disjoint sum. Pick one podcast episode from two nonoverlapping shelves: disjoint sum.
5 Sports sign-ups with two activities and shared names: fresh transfer only after G. One booking from two exclusive time windows: addition, not pairs.
6 Museum label shape and caption: one from each stage. Game avatar colour and frame: product only if all pairs allowed.
7 Choose one display route; within route choose format and voice: branch products then sum. Choose one community announcement format; within each choose dimensions: same branch structure.
8 Environmental-interest clubs: reconstruct seven regions to test claimed counts. Three book genres: a pair intersection cannot be smaller than the triple.
9 Festival ticket interests overlap; seat choice branches do not: contrast methods. Stationery label stages vs one-section choice: product vs sum.
10 After H/I, compare a fresh three-service interest count by regions. After H/I, compare two exclusive design routes with paired attributes.

The “application” is a model of counting, not a statement about how people actually behave or which mode suits a learner. No claim is made about accessibility preferences, demographics, culture or demand.
