F.16:11 - Anti-patterns & remedies

#Anti-patternSymptomWhy harmfulRemedy
AP-1Architecture before questionThe page opens with cells and routes but no recognizable problem.Reader cannot tell what changes in practice.Lead with situation, gain, and worked claim.
AP-2Mandatory rowEvery example must span two sources and contain a Concept-Set row.Ceremony replaces the simplest adequate explanation.Make the table optional; use direct prose when enough.
AP-3Row-created samenessEntries are “the same for this claim” because they share a row.Layout becomes an ontological assertion.State the actual relation and evidence, or show a contrast.
AP-4Cell as subjectA RoleDescription, promise, Work, observation, result, or status is anchored to one cell as though the cell were that value.Lexical address replaces the subject.Name the actual value; cite a cell only for local wording.
AP-5Generic BridgeAll cross-domain relations are labelled Bridges.MethodDescription membership, description use, enactment, indicator, evidence, assignment, and fulfilment collapse.Use each defining or testing pattern; recover unsupported indicator wording through C.16.P and A.6.RCD, and reserve F.9 for local-meaning relations.
AP-6Global trigger wordRole, function, process, or service appears without recovering its subject.Polysemy hides objects and relations.Apply E.10 and F.0.1 and then choose precise plain wording.
AP-7Design-time and run-time blurA design description is narrated as Work.Plan and occurrence collapse.Use F.11, A.3, and A.15 and state the actual relation.
AP-8Edition hazeSource name lacks the edition that controls meaning.The example cannot be replayed.Name the source, edition, and relevant passage.
AP-9Evidence silenceThe result appears without observations, source claims, or reliance basis.Confidence cannot be assessed.Show evidence use, limits, and non-use boundary.
AP-10Ontologist’s shorthandPredicate notation replaces an ordinary explanation.Precision becomes inaccessible to the cold reader.Lead with plain language; retain compact notation only when it genuinely shortens a repeated calculation.
