“The thing I'm most afraid of is getting to the end of the launch and convincing myself the results were good enough anyway.”
What it does
Single judgement call that reviews a drafted threshold and test window and flags ways it could be quietly moved or explained away after results come in (vague metrics, no deadline, mixed signal types), forcing a tightened, falsifiable pre-commitment. Used right after the threshold is drafted, before locking it.
Trigger: Use right after the threshold is drafted, before locking it, to close the rationalisation escape hatches.
