      "heading": "The premature conclusion",
      "point": "Concluding that standards should always be lowered would be a mistake: the second study specifically shows that a more demanding search can also accompany an objective advantage."

      "heading": "What these findings cannot prescribe",
      "point": "These studies do not test the effect of acceptance criteria on document production time in companies."

      "heading": "A practical check in Bâle",
      "point": "As part of SHR’s “Time Management & Prioritization” programme, a Basel team could test explicit acceptance criteria on a category of recurring internal deliverables: pharmaceutical or life sciences coordination notes, Rhine logistics summaries, or international R&D progress updates."
