Rules

Rule: Cut to Essential Meaning

Description: Keep only what changes reader understanding. Negative example: Redundant restatements and decorative modifiers. Positive example: One claim, one proof, one implication.

Rule: Keep Sentences Clean and Lean

Description: Use simple syntax and direct verbs. Negative example: "There is a tendency for teams to be in a position where..." Positive example: "Teams stall when decisions are not explicit."

Rule: Preserve Precision While Being Brief

Description: Short writing must still be accurate. Negative example: Over-compressed statement that drops key constraints. Positive example: "This works for weekly updates, not emergency incident comms."
