Output Discipline
The practice of reporting whatever a model produces -- even when the answer is uncomfortable -- rather than tuning inputs to align the output with current price or with the analyst's prior view. Useful analysts produce \"this is a SELL at current price\" or \"the math says pass\" outputs regularly; analysts who never report uncomfortable answers are almost certainly defending models rather than exploring them. Tracking the fraction of reports that produced uncomfortable answers is one diagnostic for whether the analyst's process is working.
