Decision matrix
A matrix is a table: options as rows, criteria as columns, weights on criteria, scores in cells. The math is simple. The honesty is not.

A matrix without evidence status is still a guess
Weighted matrices are a classic operations tool. Argumont uses criteria and scores too. The difference is the surrounding record: claims, verification, risks, confidence limits, and appeal.
What to keep from the matrix
Named criteria, weights, and numeric scores are the right skeleton. Whole numbers are enough. Fake precision such as 87.432 is not.
What the matrix usually omits
It omits whether a cell is an unverified assumption. It omits an independent attempt to overturn the winner. It omits outcome tracking after the meeting.
