Design explicit falsification tests for your schemas by
Design explicit falsification tests for your schemas by specifying what evidence would change your mind, because unfalsifiable beliefs cannot be distinguished from dogma.
Why This Is a Principle
This principle derives from Hindsight Bias and Calibration Necessity (memory reconstructs to align with outcomes, requiring external calibration), Systematic Overconfidence Taxonomy (systematic overconfidence), and Illusion of Explanatory Depth (self-assessment unreliable until articulated). Popper's falsification framework is applied here as actionable guidance: make beliefs testable. Not itself an axiom (it's prescriptive methodology), clearly a principle-level claim about how to design cognitive infrastructure.
