Frequently asked questions
What does the Problem Ownership Checker calculate?
It turns the entered artifact evidence into a transparent planning signal for the stated product-strategy decision. It does not fabricate market facts.
Is the result a final strategy decision?
No. It is a planning estimate from the assumptions entered and should be revised when customer, market, technical, or economic evidence changes.
Can qualitative judgment be used?
Use judgment only with explicit anchors and supporting evidence. Counts, coverage, effort, cost, and observed behavior should be used where available.
Does this replace specialist review?
No. High-stakes financial, legal, regulatory, privacy, accessibility, or organizational decisions require qualified review.
