Key points

A short piece on the assumptions, modeling choices, and practical relevance behind this topic.

This topic worked because it combined a clear theoretical extension with a measurable evaluation target.
The strongest supervision pattern was to keep semantics, implementation, and evaluation tightly connected from the start.
A good thesis topic becomes much stronger when it can plausibly mature into publishable work, which this one did.
