MMP.15:6 - Bias-Annotation

Predictive success invites reading inputs as controls. Readily measured variables invite unjustified adjustment, while unmeasured common causes disappear for lack of a data column. Construct the causal account from the subject process.

Failure of a familiar criterion can instead encourage unnecessary data collection. Search more broadly when the answer matters, preserving unresolved search as unresolved. Check that calculation has not substituted a convenient population or intervention version for the requested one.
