SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
we need
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'needing ones' reflects a participial idea, but in context, the form is best rendered as 'we need,' matching the plural first-person pronoun and the context of necessity; thus, P2 is accurately put as 'we need.' |
