✍ Mistakes are often blamed on the last source of truth because that's where they become visible. But the real cause may lie in the first source of truth, where an unverified error was introduced and allowed to propagate. Don't just blame where the mistake appears, trace where it began. ✨

One quarterly number almost got double-counted across two reports.
Two dashboards were quietly tracking overlapping data. Caught before it went out now there's one source of truth the reports pull from, not two that can disagree.
→ A good number is only as good as the one place it actually comes from
Great catch before it shipped. I like the “one source of truth” framing - pulling reports from one validated source makes it much harder for a duplicate dashboard to quietly skew the number again.
