Field notes
The proposed work unit is a return decision made from a customer request, order facts, and the team's written policy. A correct escalation counts as a correct decision, but the human time it triggers remains part of the cost; the page also distinguishes historical decisions from verified reference outcomes. Its sample arithmetic is labeled illustrative, and the page says no live customer actions occur.
