Editorial policy

Evidence before opinion

• Trace claims to the evidence that supports them.
• Attribute manufacturer claims and distinguish them from independent findings.
• Keep limitations, contradictions, and uncertainty visible.
• Do not present unsupported inference as fact.

Editorial independence

Potential affiliate revenue does not determine inclusion, criteria, criticism, ranking, or recommendation. No pay-to-rank model is part of this publication.

AI-assisted work

AI tools may support structure, controlled drafting, consistency, code, and quality checks. AI output is not evidence by default and is not presented as expert authorship.

Corrections and updates

Material errors should be corrected. Relevant changes in evidence, products, or context may require editorial review and an updated conclusion.
