Every decision automation system must include explicit override conditions that specify when to suspend the automated rule and return to full deliberation.
Why This Is a Principle
This derives from Cognition Operates Through Dual Processing Systems (System 1 vs System 2), Goals as Perceptual Filters (goals as filters), and Automaticity Without Conscious Control (automatic processes). The principle prescribes a specific design requirement: override conditions are mandatory, not optional. It's actionable (tells you WHAT to include), general (applies to all automated decision systems), and addresses the failure mode of applying routine logic to non-routine situations.
