NSTD.5:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
Anti-pattern
What fails
Repair
Fluency as truth
Smooth narrative is treated as supported claim.
Route evidence to A.10 and evaluate source recovery in NSTD.6.
Identification replacing a condition for action
Sympathy with a protagonist is taken as sufficient grounds for a choice whose relevant condition or alternative is missing.
Restore the needed condition or alternative. Examine a further policy, work or affected-party question only when the actual proposed action raises it.
Artisticness as adequacy
More literary or memorable wording is treated as a better narrative regardless of lost structure.
State the language-state or engagement choice, then evaluate source recovery and source return through NSTD.6; use A.6.3.CSC if distinctions were deliberately dropped.
Engagement-only success
Readers liked it but cannot reconstruct source structure.
Add reconstruction task and repair via NSTD.1 through NSTD.3.
