Short journal · Original editorial · Thinking in sequences

The same detail is copied into two separate records.

A process is easier to discuss when its transitions are visible. Name what arrives, what changes, and what the next person needs. Test the sequence with one concrete example; a tidy diagram alone does not show that it works.

Decide which record is authoritative and how the other stays current.

The proposed move is an experiment, not a claim about every person or setting. Its value depends on the task you actually face.
