The limits of the evidence
What we do not claim.
A research library is only honest if it's clear about its edges. These are the claims FocusMirror will not make.
- We do not diagnose attention disorders.
- We do not claim all switching is bad.
- We do not claim more deep work is always better.
- We do not score human worth or discipline.
- We do not provide medical, psychological, or educational diagnosis.
