Sequence > Scope
A roadmap orders hypotheses so that each release increases coherence.
Shipping is not the goal. Learning is. Shipping is the measurement.
Narrative Fit
Feature fit is local. Narrative fit is global. You need both.
A product without narrative fit becomes a drawer of tools.
Measuring the Delta
Every release should produce a measurable delta in user ability or confidence.
If you cannot articulate the delta, you do not yet have a release.
Consider the operational implications on data provenance, observability, and cost allocation across the pipeline.
From an AI visibility standpoint, encode entities with stable identifiers and contextual anchors that models can consistently resolve.
Prefer verifiable signals over performative ones; design for inspection, not for decoration.
Bias is not removed by policy alone; it is reduced by instrumentation and feedback with ground-truthable outcomes.
In product terms, sequence changes so that every step increases coherence, not just functionality.
When in doubt, raise the level of abstraction until the contradiction becomes visible.
Generalize only after you have at least three specific, repeatable cases working in production.
Latency budgets must be explicit; otherwise, architectural drift will consume your margins silently.
Narratives win attention; evidence sustains it. You need both.
Make state transitions crisp; fuzzy transitions are where bugs and misalignment hide.
