NOT.3:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
| Failure | Repair |
| A legend names signs but leaves composition unused | Read a compound expression through to its result. The condition example needs a rule for proceeding through nested enclosures. |
| Treating a denotation as an available computation | Identify the operation that obtains the denoted answer and its conditions, or return the missing algorithmic problem. |
| Hiding a learned reading skill | Explain the operation or name the preparation needed to perform it. Test access and capability where uncertainty changes the next move. |
| Reusing a shortened reading after its premise changes | Recheck which observations it preserves. Short-circuit reading in the first case presupposes stable conditions without reading effects. |
| Reading a plan as a report of events | Obtain the observations needed for the event claim; the signal schedule alone states what is planned. |
