Comm. KT: 1. The case where they do resolve their differences is not presented, perhaps because it is clear that once they were all of the same affiliation, there would be no offense for performing the Uposatha together. There are other cases missing that one might expect. For example, in the first instance, the monks are of a separate affiliation, but the incoming monks assume that they are of the same affiliation and perform the Uposatha together, with no offense, presumably showing that because they acted properly, but based on a mistaken assumption, they incur no offense. But if they had assumed the same and then performed the Uposatha separately, acting improperly based on their assumption, would it have been a dukkaṭa? Below, the opposite case occurs: the monks are of the same affiliation but they assume that they are of a different affiliation. Here, the case where they don’t ask and then perform the Uposatha together—i.e., acting improperly based on a mistaken assumption—is presented, and they incur a dukkaṭa. If they had performed it separately, would it be no offense, as they would have been acting properly, but based on a mistaken assumption, as in the first case? If that is so, then that means one doesn’t have to ask about affiliation: As long as one acts properly, according to one’s assumption, there is no offense. — Also, neither the case where the monks are of the same affiliation and assume correctly that they are of the same affiliation and perform the Uposatha together, nor the case where they are of different affiliation, assume that correctly, and perform the Uposatha separately, are mentioned. The reason in these cases seems to be that it’s clear enough there would be no offense.
