THE NATURE OF QUESTIONS / 001＋OUR APPROACH
Curiosity. Without jumping to conclusions.
Unexplained does not mean supernatural. We preserve context, distinguish observations from interpretations and update cases as new evidence appears.
01
Sources before sensations
We preserve source links and distinguish originals from reposts.
02
How we work ↗Uncertainty is a valid result
We clearly state when the evidence is insufficient for a conclusion.
