HCD.18:6 - Bias-Annotation

The selected task denominator can inherit the designer’s narrow experience. Compare it with consequential work variants and a qualified domain account, especially when the present material omits them. Declared prerequisites can also conceal missing instruction by demanding knowledge the intended audience was never promised to have.

Prepared readers and language models may repair an explanation without noticing how much prior knowledge they used. Their diagnosis can establish a source defect, but their success does not automatically qualify material for a less-prepared audience. Preserve actual human difficulty reports when their task or assistance differs.

An ordinal scale can make evaluators seek a number before understanding repair reach. Read the limiting case and evidence first; retain an unresolved boundary when its meaning is disputed.
