# Card 8: The Jury

**Reach for it when** you have two versions, each with something the other lacks.

**Say it like this**

- "The second opening wins because it respects the reader's time. But the first has the honest sentence about cost. Carry that into the winner."
- "Write my reasons down as our rule for next time."

**Not this:** "I like the first one better." (A verdict without reasons can't be reused.)
