Method obtains executing instance from exactly one Single Instance Flow

Single Instance Flow supplies executing instance to zero or one Method

---

A Method may be executed by any instance of the Method's Class. This executing instance is typically referred to as 'me' or 'self' depending on the action language. We can think of the corresponding instance reference as flowing into the Method.

A given Single Instance Flow may or may not be used for this purpose.
