D.5:3.3 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
| Anti-pattern | What goes wrong | Repair |
| Ethics ghetto | Bias or fairness is left in a separate ethics note while the model, metric, release, publication, or work plan keeps operating unchanged. | Put the concern on the audited EntityOfConcern and its intended use, then name the mitigation, constraint, or accepted residual. |
| Checklist charade | A checklist is completed without answering the concern about affected people, evidence, use, or residuals. | Return the bounded finding or judgement; use a register or report when its content is needed for tracking or reliance. |
| Bias whack-a-mole | One disparity is patched while proxy, representation, metric, visibility, or language concerns move elsewhere. | Keep REP, ALG, VIS, MET, and LNG concerns visible until the admissible use and accepted residual are explicit. |
