Editorial standards

Our writing follows these principles:

• Open with the use case, not the product
• Use a scoring rubric (Cost / COA / Lead time / Trust / Support) — 5 dimensions, 1-5 each
• Show your work — every score has a one-sentence reason
• Real prices per mL or per unit, not 'affordable'
• Disclose: 'we tested X by ordering Y' when relevant
• Recommend by use case ('for a 50-vial month, X wins; for a one-time 5-vial test, Y wins')
