After using this system for a month, something interesting happens. You’ll be reading your own work and something will feel “off” — you won’t immediately know why, but your instinct will flag it. That’s pattern recognition developing at a subconscious level.
This module teaches you to diagnose what that instinct detected. Because that “off” feeling is usually one of six AI-isms sneaking through your editing, or one of five common pitfalls that sabotage even well-intentioned use of the system.
The goal isn’t to memorize more rules. The goal is to sharpen your instinct so you can trust it. When something feels wrong, it probably is wrong — you just need to know what to look for to confirm your suspicion.
