Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. eka-tvāt (एक-त्वात्) from 10.7.21 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: prati-prasthātuḥ (प्रति-प्रस्थातुः) + ca (च) + vapāśrapaṇāt (वपाश्रपणात्)
