| Scale set from air. | Coordinates appear because they are familiar. | Rebuild from evaluated object kind, use, contrast cases, failure modes, domain tradition, first principles, and current source-use relation. |
| Wrong-kind object forced through the table. | Objects outside the declared kind are either scored as weak members of that kind or silently exempted from declared coordinates. | Add an object-kind-fit rule and boundary cases: before opening, return to a suitable evaluation; after invocation, record an explicit object-kind-fit defect/value or repair status. |
| Checklist masquerading as characteristic space. | A list of tasks is treated as coordinates. | Convert each task row to an evaluated EntityOfConcern property with a characteristic, scale, value meaning, and evidence rule, or move it to work planning. |
| One total quality score. | Several ordinal values are averaged. | Use coordinates, statuses, dominance or comparison rule, and protected trade-offs; do not scalarize unless an neighboring pattern governing the claim explicitly declares the operation. |
| Improvement without floor. | A loop continues because more change is possible. | State floor, exceptional meaning, stop condition, and reopen condition. |
| Hidden value drift. | The evaluation changes while old evaluations are compared as if nothing changed. | Version the evaluation and state comparability, bridge, or retirement. |
| Evaluation theft. | The new evaluation starts asserting evidence, assurance, gate, work, decision, or publication truth without the corresponding predicate and case facts. | State each neighboring subject assertion under its exact predicate or constraint and leave only the value evaluation here. |
| Result prose as evaluation. | An evaluator returns a narrative, two-column table, checklist count, or value list without evidence basis and short rationales. | Define the result-row shape, require short rationales and evidence basis, and apply the declared missingness rule to each coordinate whose needed evidence is missing or unchecked. |
| Evidence basis as evaluated-object method. | Corpus projection, retrieval, currentness, comparator, monolith-parity, quality-status evidence, or author or reviewer turn correspondence is written in the evaluated object as if it were what the evaluated-object user does. | Move the evidence to the evaluation result, evidence basis, projection carrier, or selected publication carrier; keep only the user action or boundary that the evidence justifies. |
| Coordinate wording as ontology change. | A coordinate or repair name sounds cleaner, but changes the evaluated object kind, characteristic kind, relation or claim kind, admissible use, or scope. | Treat it as a changed evaluation decision, recover the pre/post kind relation, and repair or reopen the evaluation rather than accepting lexical cleanup. |
