Brief
The opposite failure. This prompt reads well, sounds senior, and survives any edge case — because it does not commit to anything. Ask it what "thorough analysis" means and there is no answer in the text.
Every hedge in here is a decision the author declined to make, which means the model makes it instead, differently each time.
Task
Rewrite this so every hedge becomes something checkable. Keep the same scope of work; replace the adverbs with output shapes, thresholds and named artifacts. Do not solve it by adding branches — that is the other wall.
