Temporarily disable expert pattern recognition by describing
Temporarily disable expert pattern recognition by describing what you observe before categorizing it, preventing automatic schemas from filtering out category-inconsistent details.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Expertise Transforms Perceptual Chunking (expertise changes chunk size), Schemas as Knowledge Organization Structures (schemas guide processing), and Automaticity Without Conscious Control (automatic processes operate without awareness). The principle prescribes separating observation from evaluation—'the standup takes 22 minutes' before 'the standup is too long'—to prevent expert schemas from auto-filtering.
