A potential formula creating dramatica gists and subtext illustrations

Could this line from @jhull article on narrative first be a formula to create meaningful dramatica illustrations?

It’s engaging in the process of (add dramatica element) plus not forgetting to include the problem

For example:

Engaging in the process of (dramatica element - cause)

Attempting to find out what caused the disease outbreak

Finding out what caused something

Finding out what caused something to happen

Could using the result - process quads unlock a more comprehensive formula for gists?
Eg: process-result, cause-effect,

Uncovering the cause
Engaging in a process of dramatica term
Witnessing the result
Experiencing the effects

Or what’s causing the process to happen? (knowledge)

How are the characters engaging in the process of dramatica element (desire)

What are the results or external outcomes (ability)

What are the internal outcomes - effects (thoughts)
