Evidence Before Narrative
A coherent story is not a substitute for a supported finding.
Narratives can make weak evidence sound stronger than it is.
Research should record support, contradiction and uncertainty before drafting the story.
The final wording should remain proportionate to the evidence.
A human reviewer should be able to see why the conclusion is justified.
Why this matters
This is why Aperture separates research readiness from final document production.
