Can a market requirement be functional? 2. Can a market requirement be nonfunctional? 3. Can a product requirement be functional? 4. Can a product requirement be nonfunctional? 5. Is it the case that every requirement is either functional or nonfunctional? 6. Are the functional requirements what the developers should build, or do they need both the functional and nonfunctional requirements to know what to build? Okay, so if I understand your semantic framework correctly, we have:

market requirements – goals to achieve to solve market problems
product requirements – goals for the software or product to achieve
functional requirements – what developers should build

But then:

1. Can a market requirement be functional?
2. Can a market requirement be nonfunctional?
3. Can a product requirement be functional?
4. Can a product requirement be nonfunctional?
5. Is it the case that every requirement is either functional or nonfunctional?
6. Are the functional requirements what the developers should build, or do they need both the functional and nonfunctional requirements to know what to build?
