Which concrete ways of giving a scene or action more emphasis does Sargent list in Chapter XLVII, and which are his general claims and which only his examples?
1916 practice: Sargent lists adding to the action as one of 'many methods' and then names others: slow the action at a point and contrast it with quick flashes (para 8), the bust or close-up as a 'mechanical emphasis mark' (para 9), placement of a scene so that two scenes emphasise each other, preferably as a cut-back (para 10), a leader (slight value, para 11), and early business for a player who matters later (para 12). The chapter does not name repetition, and the only 'length' it mentions is a lengthy leader (see -06). The Giles hesitation and the cut-back after the delirium scene are his invented examples.

Curator qualifications: Value and emphasis rules are verified as Sargent's text: the implied promise that prominence will pay off, emphasis methods, and character importance by plot connection. The bounded negatives hold on whole-word counts.
Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
