What are the termination conditions for analyzing a disagreement? They come in five forms: complete agreement, satisfying agreement, impossible to agree, acknowledgment of conflict, and dissolving the question.

Could you go into more detail here? In particular I'd like to know the difference between "impossible to agree" and "acknowledgment of conflict".

My guess is, it has something to do with whether of not you think further discussion would be useful.
