Week 4 Audit: When the pitch is true

An expert-work audit --- the hardest case for scepticism, where the pitch's numbers really do hold up

15 March 2027

Every audit so far has had at least one number in the pitch worth challenging. This week doesn’t. The published accuracy figures are real, so the audit skill under practice is different: arguing against a migration whose immediate case is true, on the strength of what it costs a profession over a decade.

Before the session#

Bring one reason the pitch’s accuracy numbers, even if fully accurate, don’t settle the question this notice is actually about.

In the session#

Debate format: half the room argues the pitch, half argues the audit, using only the text of this week’s notice. Notice which side has to reach further than the page in front of them.

Afterwards#

This is the week to update your Weekly Audit Log with a note on what a “true but insufficient” pitch looks like — you’ll need that distinction for weeks where the pitch is far less true.
