Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for each query, but PowerShell is given equal prominence as CLI, despite being a Windows-centric tool. The tab order consistently lists Azure CLI first, which is cross-platform, but the inclusion of PowerShell examples for every scenario introduces a subtle Windows bias. There are no Linux-specific shell examples (e.g., Bash scripting), nor is there mention of Linux-native tools or usage patterns. No explicit Windows-only tools are referenced, but the parity between CLI and PowerShell may suggest to users that PowerShell is equally relevant on all platforms, which is not the case.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and preferred for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add explicit Bash or shell script examples for Linux users where appropriate.
  • Note that PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows users, or mention PowerShell Core for Linux/macOS.
  • Consider adding a 'Linux/macOS' tab with usage notes or examples tailored for those platforms.
  • Review documentation for any assumptions about the user's OS and make platform recommendations explicit.
