About this exercise
Compare win rates in exactly 4 plain-text lines starting Q2:, Q3:, Change: and Caution:. Q2 and Q3 show the math (won / (won + lost) = N%). Change is Q3 minus Q2 in percentage points with a sign. Caution is exactly "Counts are small; the data does not show a cause." Do not explain why the rate changed.
Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Explaining the cause. The AI blames the new competitor. Try: Add: "Do not explain why the rate changed."
- Wrong math. The AI divides won by lost. Try: Add: "Win rate = won / (won + lost)."
- Rewording the Caution. The AI paraphrases. Try: Add: "Caution is exactly: Counts are small; the data does not show a cause."
- Wrong structure. The AI writes paragraphs. Try: Add: "Four labeled lines, plain text."
