For clarity, some examples in English follow.

*"Realistic working of the world" type: You should fear walking down dark
alleys alone. (Because, realistically, you are putting yourself in danger)
*"Moral appeal to an ideal world" type: You should not (have to) fer
walking down dark alleys alone. (In an ideal world, there would be no crime
and, in a perfect moral word, one should not have to fear for their bodily
wellbeing.)
*"Expectation in a hypothetical world that works as one believes" type: If
the Standard Model is true, then there should be the Higgs boson with
certain properties only. (To our best understanding, the result of an
experiment is expected to be something; if the world worked according to
our current "beliefs"/understanding, then our expectations would be right
and the result would have to be of a certain form.)

All of these are "hypothetical" in some way. They are not expectation about
what will really happen (unlike kanpe) but are expectations about would
would/should happen if certain axioms are true. Also, the results are
guaranteed (we expect) in a world that is governed by these axioms, there
is no uncertainty (again, unlike kanpe, which has a scale of
certainty/expectation).

Then kanpe lo nu ganai brode gi brode with kanpe further expanded into counting possible worlds.

Technically, in that case, kanpe is probably more general because it can range from utter hoping against all odds to subjective guarantee. But that does not carry the sense that the result is proper or as it should be. This word connotes a sense of satisfaction with the result/world if it were to happen/be true. Also, this word is not restricted to events but covers all abstractions and includes a predicate for the necessary conditions.

It's just su'u there. the word "moral" confuses me in the def of cadga. Is it then ja'i lo marde be x3 va'o x2 x1 bi'ai fasnu ?
