A.19.USCM:6 - Bias-Annotation — informative

  • Gov (governance). Bias toward explicit admissibility and evidence surfaces (CGSpecRef, SCP, MinimalEvidence) rather than “standard practice” arithmetic. Risk: perceived overhead. Mitigation: keep the kernel signature small and push method specifics into SoTA packs and wiring modules.

  • Arch (architecture). Bias toward stable interfaces and strict step boundaries (no implicit UNM; no hidden scalarization). Risk: reduced room for ad‑hoc shortcuts. Mitigation: allow richer scoring method families via wiring, without mutating the USCM intension.

  • Onto/Epist. Bias toward treating scores as measures with declared semantics, not as “the truth.” Risk: teams accustomed to one‑number rankings may resist. Mitigation: treat scalarization as an explicit, auditable commitment, not as the default.

  • Prag (pragmatics). Bias toward fail‑closed guards and traceability under uncertainty. Risk: more degrade/abstain outcomes early. Mitigation: couple degrade with explicit downstream behavior policies, rather than silent coercion.

  • Did (didactics). Bias toward “one place to learn the mechanism”: the problem/forces/solution narrative is co‑located with the canonical Mechanism.Intension.
