Frequently asked questions
What makes a decision statement 'vague'?
Short, generic statements like 'see how it's used' don't specify what you'll actually do with the data. A strong statement names the call (keep/expand/sunset) and the threshold that triggers it.
Why does event count matter if more data is usually better?
Every event has an implementation and maintenance cost. Tracking 30 events for a vague decision usually means most of them will never be queried — that's noise, not insight.
How is the score calculated?
Decision clarity (word count plus presence of a decision verb like 'decide' or 'sunset') earns up to 60 points; event count is scored against a cap set by that clarity, up to 40 points. It's transparent arithmetic, not a hidden model.
Is this only for new features?
It works best for features about to ship, where you're defining the tracking plan before implementation — but you can also use it to audit an existing feature's event list.
What should I do if my score is low?
Rewrite the decision statement to be specific first, then cut your event list down to only what that decision needs.
