Split the Labor: Separating Evidence Interpretation from Decision Aggregation
If you're building systems that aggregate evidence from multiple sources, this names a real bug in how you're probably combining them. Count-scale drift means your decision threshold shifts with the number of sources, so adding more information changes your operating point in unpredictable ways. The fix is the interface: standardize what each source returns (hypothesis, reliability bucket, rationale, provenance) so arithmetic can replace narrative guessing.
