C.2.8:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
| Observed or invited mistake | Repair |
| A fully articulated account is assumed equally recoverable by every reader | Retain its AE result and compare ESI for the selected reader preparation and budget. |
| The expert fixes false text, and the corrected relation is credited to that text | Preserve the initial answer and identify the correction supplied by expertise; repair the expression against its source. |
| Source-return links or a transfer test raise an amount score by their mere presence | Use source return as available support and transfer as its own tested result; compare the structure recovered under those conditions. |
| A missing denominator is scored as little structure | Return the missing comparison basis. Assign zero only when the declared scale and observation support it. |
| Fewer words, more boxes or a larger model are used as the structural measure | Identify the selected semantic structure and justify the representation or model correspondence. |
| A richer explanation is chosen despite a sufficient incumbent and no worthwhile gain | Compare the finite change’s actual contribution and cost through C.11.CRC/C.11. |
