Upside is not a plan if the tail is unnamed
Finance uses risk-adjusted return. Operators can use the same idea without a lecture: what is the downside, how likely, and who eats it.
What it means
A high score with a thin risk file is incomplete. Adjustment means residual risk after mitigations, not a fear essay.
Why it matters
Boards approve upside. Operations live in the tail. Both need to be in the same record.
How to apply it
Keep risk as its own scored dimension. Do not bury it in a footnote on the recommendation slide.
A common trap
Listing every possible risk so the analysis looks thorough. Volume is not adjustment.
How Argumont uses this
Risk can be scored alongside other criteria. Confidence should fall when residual risk is high and evidence is thin.

Decision scoring
A score says this option is stronger on this criterion, given this evidence. If you cannot show the evidence, the score is decoration.
