Principlev1

Choose schema reviewers who think differently from you, not

Choose schema reviewers who think differently from you, not those who share your framework, because divergent perspectives surface blind spots that similar perspectives cannot see.

Why This Is a Principle

Derives from Bias Blind Spot Asymmetry (bias blind spot—can't see own biases), Culture Shapes Fundamental Cognition (cultural context shapes perception fundamentally), and Egocentric Anchoring in Perspective-Taking (egocentric anchoring). The principle prescribes reviewer selection criteria. Actionable, general, grounded in multiple cognitive biases.
