Abstract
The characteristics of epistemic collections are divided into two categories: accuracy (hard) and perfection (soft). The soft criterion focuses on the desired perfection; for example fluency and eloquence. This research considers the seven features of simplicity and clarity, proportionality and balance, correspondence, reciprocating, transition, symmetry and self-generation to be the most important components of soft criterion. This criterion is founded on a philosophical explanation based on transcendent wisdom. To achieve a further explanation of the components of this criterion, this indicator is included in some tables of logic, for example the table of co-true propositions. First, it is evaluated with the components of the soft criteria and while identifying some weaknesses and through philosophic analysis, in order to solve these cases, proposals are presented, implemented and improvements made to address them. The result was meaningfully positive and the suggestions increased the performance and beauty of the main tables. All the steps are descriptive-logical and the result is that with these revisions, the efficiency and usefulness of this table have increased.
