Lawvere & Schanuel, 2009.
Lawvere also asks (and then answers), "What is a space and how can quantities vary over a space?", "spaces actually arise and are used in mathematical science, they have two main general conceptual features: first they serve as an arena for "becoming" (there are spaces of states as well as spaces of locations) and secondly they serve as domains for variable quantity." (1992).
Along the same lines we could consider Aristotle's final cause R to be a space. Then, success of a course of actions, i.e. efficient cause measured using a binary system, can vary over that space. Furthermore, both the material cause and the "labor" aspect of the efficient cause would vary over R as well.
In this model, Fairy Godmother would be a realization for the efficient cause, while Cinderella would play the role of a corresponding material cause, i.e. labor. By analogy, startup founders shape investor capital to succeed in the market.
As a result, we have a space of variable quantity for becoming successful.
