Method / Guides
How we write guides.
Guides exist to help someone decide — including the decision to skip a tactic or vendor.
What does verdict-first mean here?
The Quick Answer block states the conclusion before the background. If a reader (or model) stops after sixty words, they still leave with a usable position — and a clear sense of who the advice is not for.

dateModified, not the address. Redirects preserve old links when a slug is renamed.
