Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. pṛṣṭhārthe (पृष्ठार्थे) from 10.4.43 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: svayonau (स्वयोनौ) + vā (वा) + sarvākhyatvāt (सर्वाख्यत्वात्)
