Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. liṅgadarśanāc (लिङ्गदर्शनाच्) from 10.1.41 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: odano (ओदनो) + vā (वा) + prayukta-tvāt (प्रयुक्त-त्वात्)
