Claim Context or Caution
by Eric Gonzalez-Payne

Three different failure modes that students collapse into one word, wrong.
A claim can be unsupported, or supported but misapplied to a different context, or supported and still dangerous in the wrong hands. Each requires a different response.
The page has the three category definitions, twenty claims, a sorting frame and teacher notes. The context category is the subtle one and the most common in practice. A dose that is fine for an adult, a preparation that changes the active compound, a plant that is safe raw and not cooked. Those distinctions are where real harm happens.
