to their real [actual] possibilities

: Two cautionary notes: 1) Using "unlock" changes the sense a bit. 2) It's too bad that "implemented" has migrated from computerese and become an all-purpose substitute for "used", "applied", "employed", "practiced". Any of those works better with "method".

Thank you for your thoughtful comment! I totally agree with you regarding “implemented”; I somehow forgot that it’s often better to use shorter words. As for “unlock,” maybe I got the meaning wrong; I guess more context could be useful.
