PHY.3:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
| Anti-pattern | Failure in use | Repair |
| A limit quoted without its physical preparation | A bound derived for two reservoirs is applied to a device consuming an additional resource. | Recover the complete transformation and derive the applicable restriction. |
| An algebraic inverse treated as an available apparatus | The comparison depends on a reverse process whose required preparation or control was never admitted. | Establish the physical reference operation before using its cancellation. |
| Failure of one construction promoted to impossibility | Another permitted coupling or auxiliary lies outside the calculation. | Give a covering physical description or restrict the conclusion to the analyzed class. |
| Input-specific devices hidden inside one-device wording | A calculation selects a separate operation after knowing each supposedly unknown input. | Hold the common device and allowed information fixed across the input comparison. |
| Reset or ancillary change omitted | Apparent cyclic performance consumes a stored resource or accumulates a consequential change. | Include that state change and the reset required by the actual repeatability condition. |
