OPS.8.2:6 - Bias-Annotation

A utilization display makes idle time conspicuous while the protection it supplies may be invisible. Conversely, a label such as “reserve” can discourage useful work even when its full return fits the service requirement.

A successful short return can hide later costs. Repeated interruption may waste auxiliary progress, exhaust a person or occupy supporting resources. Judge the arrangement at the receiving service and the intended auxiliary result, rather than by occupied minutes alone.

The numerical cases are constructed timing comparisons. They establish conditional consequences, not measured interruption times for people, machines or AI systems.
