Prose scrub from a public-surface audit (README, CHANGELOG, SPEC, AGENTS, roadmap). Three genuine findings, all here; the rest of the surface was already clean (zero em dashes, no promotional language).

  • README DIF note: two consecutive > Note: blockquotes both closed on the same 'not a fairness verdict' disclaimer. Merged into one note covering both mechanisms (nested-strata confound + panel-wide shared bias) with a single close.
  • README demo contrast: dropped the 'the contrast is the point' stock opener and the unanimous/unanimously wordplay.
  • CHANGELOG header: 'aims to follow' SemVer softened a standard, confident claim into a hedge. Now states adherence directly.

Pre-existing prose, kept separate from #15 (bias-conditioner examples).

- README: merge two consecutive DIF Note blockquotes that both closed on the
  same fairness-verdict disclaimer into one note stating both mechanisms
  (nested-strata confound, panel-wide shared bias) with a single close.
- README: trim the demo-contrast paragraph, dropping the 'the contrast is the
  point' opener and the unanimous/unanimously wordplay.
- CHANGELOG: state SemVer adherence directly instead of 'aims to follow'.

Pull request overview

This PR performs a small public-surface prose tightening to reduce ambiguity in user-facing docs, primarily around DIF caveats and a SemVer adherence statement.

Changes:

  • Consolidates two adjacent DIF caveat blockquotes in the README into a single, clearer note covering both limitations and the external-conditioner recommendation.
  • Rewords the README reliability contrast paragraph to remove rhetorical phrasing while preserving the underlying caution.
  • Updates the CHANGELOG header language from “aims to follow” to a direct adherence claim for Keep a Changelog and SemVer.
