Label observations and interpretations explicitly…

Label observations and interpretations explicitly with distinct markers to make the cognitive boundary between perception and inference visible and auditable.

Why This Is a Principle

Derives directly from Automatic Fusion of Observation and Interpretation (humans automatically fuse observation with interpretation sub-second) and Perception as Predictive Construction (perception is active predictive construction). Prescribes explicit labeling to counter automatic fusion. Highly actionable ([OBS]/[INT] tags), general across all domains, directly follows from perceptual axioms.
