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

Anti-patternRepair
Score the sponsor’s option against “do nothing”.Recover a real baseline and a materially different mechanism or explain why none is live.
Treat buy, provider, AI, and internal as peer kinds.Describe the proposed whole arrangements and their receiving results.
Exclude a proposal because feasibility is unknown.Keep the inquiry candidate separate from commitment eligibility and name the missing result.
Add component benefits to justify a hybrid.Qualify the combined configuration and its interactions.
Treat novelty or archive membership as selection.Use the characterization or archive result only for its stated function.
Generate forever because the set is not exhaustive.Stop at the bounded comparison need and retain a specific reopen condition.
