| Criterion |  Engineering Hypothesis-Driven Troubleshooting |  Product Discovery Learning Card |  Product Discovery Smoke Test |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When systems fail unexpectedly, spontaneous attempts often produce more noise than insight. Hypothesis-driven Troubleshooting translates symptoms into testable assumptions and makes troubleshooting learnable. | The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible. | When demand only needs to be roughly verified, it tests interest with minimal effort. It measures whether people would take a next step at all. |
