NSTD.4:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them

Anti-pattern	What fails	Repair
Protagonist as responsible agent	Narrative centrality becomes moral or operational responsibility.	Split protagonist function from `A.13`, `A.2.1`, and ethics owner claims.
Hidden participant	“The specification decided” leaves a consequential decision-maker unidentified.	Name the person, team or technical system that made the decision and the applicable assignment when required. Preserve harmless metonymy when the action is already clear.
Viewpoint hides harmed party	A compelling viewpoint erases affected parties.	Route to `D.1` through `D.5` and add a source-return or viewpoint correction.
