ME.14:6 - Bias-Annotation

Recurring biasLikely driftRepair
one-score biasUnlike results, burdens, and evidence are collapsed into one ranking.Keep cells and non-compensable stops visible; use A.19 for non-trivial comparison.
incumbent-evidence biasLong history is treated as strong comparable evidence while candidate trials are discounted, or vice versa.Qualify each source, situation, window, and gap symmetrically.
fit-as-worth biasA fit result becomes keep.Add current alternatives, receiving consequences, burdens, and opportunity costs.
success-as-causality biasA favourable occurrence is attributed to the Method.State association, contribution, causal basis, and missing counterfactual separately.
omitted-stop biasOnly active Method alternatives are compared.Include status quo, stop, or next-slot Work when it changes the decision.
capability-free biasTraining, expertise, tool support, and maintenance appear costless.Record holder capability and support demands with bearers and currentness.
universal-winner biasA local branch or keep becomes organization-wide adoption.Bound the situation discriminator, window, receiver, and non-transfer.
