I believe most people would benefit from the revelation that (in today's use -- not necessarily understanding to those that lack it) a method is supposed to be one repetitive instruction (or instruction-list) to conduct in order to attain a solution to a problem from the method-associated problem class. Examples are: stacking bricks, PLU-factorization, cooking, Scrum/Agile. This insight is not yet clearly presented on wikipedia, neither on method nor in methodology. Having this insight would help people avoid and rule out ill-advisable methods. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.17.92.45 ( talk) 12:14, 1 May 2024 (UTC) reply

This point is covered in the subsection "As method". I added a short explanation to make it more explicit. Phlsph7 ( talk) 08:19, 2 May 2024 (UTC) reply
