Qualitative Process Or Conflation Of Process And Attribute

These things	matter
Carrier	Process: attributive	Attribute

Halliday & Matthiessen (2014: 271):

Within ‘quality’ attribution, there is a further option: a small number of qualities may be construed as a qualitative Process rather than as a qualitative Attribute. Thus, alongside will it be enough? we have will it suffice? (Alternatively, we can interpret such clauses as having a conflation of Process and Attribute.)
